Weird noise when doing sharp turn?

[noloc45]

So recently Ive noticed that when I back out of my parking spot at work and I turn the wheel all the way right to drive out, theres a "pop" noise come from what seems the front driver side wheel.

I took it to the dealership, they said they had to replace the hub & bearing but that the tech noticed theres still a noise and cant figure it out. Called Chrysler and they would get back to them.

Any ideas? Anyone have issues?

Also, about 2 weeks ago I started hearing a whistling noise coming somewhere from the passenger side. Somewhere. And its at random. I think when the wind is JUST right. Last about 3-5 seconds and nothing more. Cant figure that one out either.

Most important is that pop/clank I hear.

Thanks guy!

my first guess would be a bad u joint

I read a thread on here with a similar problem. The whistling noise was determined to be outside air creeping in and passing thru one of the speakers. I forget which of the seals wasn’t set properly but it was allowing air to pass thru.

Suffice to say once the seal was replaced the noise stopped.

Either that or it’s you yourself making that noise.

Maybe the whistle is from the plastic triangle piece in the corner of the outside window. If it’s not sealed right I have seen where air will get under there and make a whistle.

The pop or clunk is hard to help you diagnose without much to go on but turning right from a parking space. It could be a list of things. Does this only happen at full lock to the right?
If you were not at full lock would this pop still happen?

Is your Jeep completely stock?

YES!! What he said! There was a thread where a forum member sealed a part of this and it stopped the whistling.

As for the noise when turning this post may be helpful. It worked for me.

Sounds like a loose ball joint, check torque, and make sure it’s right.

Thats what I was going to suggest.

you can crawl under and try wiggling suspension parts, and you can also park, turn the wheel lock to lock, and have someone give the body a shove to try and replicate the action of you pulling out of the driveway while you're underneath. Have you tried backing out in both directions to see if it happens either way?

Right?! Hahahah. I feel like I'm one of the lucky ones with no whistle. I have used silicone lube on all my rubber freedom top gaskets. Maybe that helped?

Sorry everyone, Ive been a bit busy getting myself setup at home to work remotely.

I will try everyone's suggestings and see.

I have not tried pull out from the left! I will see and no, not full lock but I do think it has to be significant turn. I will test out various scenarios.

I just posted another issue Im having now after service. Rear locker randomly turning "on"

thats a short in the locker feed back wire. you can take it to the dealer they should be able to figure that out rather quickly.
