Noise while turning wheel

[DeNoZZo]

I'm hearing a creeking from the front of my car whenever I turn the wheels or go over a bump slowly. It started about 2 weeks ago, and has progressively gotten worse. I am thinking maybe a ball joint, but I don't know. Is there any way to tell if the bj recall has been done online? What else could this sound be?

Check for broken springs. I had a broken spring that made sounds when i hit bumps and turned the wheels. Might help!

Call you dealer and give them your VIN they can track it by that. The recall numbers Ive highlighted in RED

What else could this be??

You might check the strut mounts. They are on top and bolt to the body sometimes the rubber dry rots and they can make noise. I would lean towards ball joints.

Thanks a shit ton man, I hope none of them separate if that is the problem because I need to drive my car for a few days.
