I’ve had this issue for a couple months now. I think it started when I hit a pot hole pretty bad but at first I didn’t notice anything. But whenever I take a hard left turn, at any speed, it makes a weird grinding/rubbing/whining noise. It comes from the front passenger side but I took it to a mechanic said it was the wheel bearing, he replaced it, and it still wasn’t fixed. Mechanic said he checked all other suspension components saying that they looked good and solid and suggested the next course of action would be to do the engine mounts. Sounds BS to me. But honestly, I’m completely stumped on this one.

I taped my phone inside to see all the suspension pieces and in this video it’s really hard to hear the noise

I put my phone in the engine bay near that side and the noise is a lot more prevalent

This is what it sounds like inside the car
