Ok I have a 2002 SXT with close to 72K miles and several months ago I had a front end alignment done on it. 2 weeks later it started making a wierd scraping/ groaning noise whenever I started making turns to the left. Now when I turn it's making the same noise and like something is going to pop. When I'm in park and turn the wheels left or right I can hear it groaning and the same nosie like something is going to pop. Could it be the left barings, CV Boot, axel, any ideas? At low speeds it's more prevelant then at high speeds. I'm taking it to get looked at tomorrow and I don't want someone charging me an arm and a leg to get it worked on. I tried to take it back after I had the alignement done and they told me that anything could have happened after ther work was done 2 weeks ago so they won't help me out. Any help would be apperciated. Also if you've had the advised work done can you give me an idea of how much it may cost?

 

bushings?

 

A groaning while turning the wheel sounds like a power steering issue.
