Why does my Kia Soul emit strange noises while turning?

I recently noticed that my Kia Soul makes strange noises when I turn the steering wheel. It almost sounds like a grinding or squeaking sound. What could be causing this and how can I fix it? Thank you!

Hi Melissa, it sounds like your Kia Soul may have a problem with the steering column. It's important to get this checked out by a certified mechanic as soon as possible to prevent further damage.

I had the same issue with my Kia Soul and it turned out to be a problem with the power steering pump. I suggest taking it to a dealership to get it fixed. My name is Sarah.

This could also be caused by worn out suspension components. It's best to have a professional inspect your vehicle to determine the exact cause. Best of luck!
