Steering wheel bump feedback

Hey guys,

So recently I've noticed that whenever I turn my steering wheel to the right (about as much needed as to make a right turn) I feel a bump/click in the steering wheel every 1-2 wheel revolutions or so. This only happens when turning right though, not left. It almost feels as if my tire had a nail or some kind of large rock in it, but I only feel this in the steering wheel and only while turning right. I don't hear anything, just the feedback on the steering wheel.

I plan to take it to the dealership, but does anyone have any experience with this? Rather fix it myself than leave it to the dealer. Thanks

Hi ed_the_sledd,

Once you have an appointment set up, I can send this up the chain to your customer service manager. I'll need your VIN, updated mileage, best daytime phone number, full name, and dealer name/location via PM.

Thanks Megan, but I actually brought the car in to the dealership today. I found a big blob/gloop (not sure the technical term) of grease under the clutch pedal. Seems that there may be a lack of lubrication, so I immediately brought it here. I'm waiting now, but I'll report back after they finish with the car.

Thanks for following up! I'll be around if you need me. :)
