1997 Plymouth Breeze Logo
Jeremiah Smith Posted on Nov 28, 2015

Left-Front side of my car clicks when taking a tight right turn.

Whenever I take a tight righthand turn in my '97 Breeze, I hear a soft clicking noise coming from what sounds like my wheel/tire area. I feel like it might be one of the ball-joints, but I'd like an opinion for confirmation's sake. Could it be my lower control arm going bad, again(the previous one went bad and then fell apart, destroying the half-shaft in the process) or is it the upper ball-joint, which is a factory part?

My car makes a clicking noise from the right tire when turning either direction

It could probably be your passenger CV Axle that needs to be replaced. They tend to make a loud/soft clicking noise if they go out.

One of your CV joints are bad, inspect which CV joint needs to be replaced. Roll your windows down and make tight right and left corners in an empty parking lot slowly and listen for the clicking noise. If it's coming from the passenger side window or the drivers side window, which ever side the noise is coming from is the side that the CV joint has failed and will need to be replaced.
Thank you for using FIxya and replacing the front wheel bearing improperly buy hammering the CV joint out instead of using a wheel bearing puller will cause damage to the CV joint as to what you have described. Good luck and keep us posted.

I hear a growling noise whenever i get over a certain speed, and when speeding up. It's coming from th right front and i thought maybe the wheel bearing? The noise goes away when turning to the right.??

good chance it is . Grab top of wheels and rock it side to side . If you feel it clicking pretty good you probably need bearings . I would try this on all the wheels . Hope it is a rear bearing if it is front wheel drive

Scraping pulse noise r front merc sable

Check the condition of the wheel bearings, front and back side if the brake rotor, and the back side of the rim. Everything should be clean, rust build-up can throw everything out of true. The hub or wheel-bearing should be tight and smooth when spun.

My 97 Breeze battery is behind the left front wheel. Turn your steering wheel all the way to the right, and lock in position. Remove the access plate in the wheel well.
