Why is my Kia Sorento making a strange noise while turning?

Recently, my Kia Sorento has been making a strange noise when I am turning. The noise sounds like a low whining or grinding sound and I am concerned about what could be causing it. Can anyone provide some advice on what might be causing this issue?

The strange noise you are hearing while turning could be a sign of low power steering fluid. I recommend checking your fluid levels and topping off if necessary.

It could also be an issue with your car's ball joints. I suggest taking it to a mechanic to have them inspect and potentially replace the ball joints if needed.

Have you recently had new tires put on? Sometimes, if the tires are not properly balanced, it can cause strange noises while turning. I recommend having a professional check the tire balance.

I had a similar issue with my Sorento and it turned out to be a problem with the steering column. I would suggest taking it to a dealership for a proper diagnosis and repair.
