While driving slowly and turning the steering wheel, I hear a crackling or popping sound, similar to a âcrunchâ or âcreakingâ noise. The sound seems to come from the front and rear area, especially noticeable during low-speed turns (like parking). After I check with Honda dealer they replace Front strut bearing but after replace it. It still making noise. Steering
