  post locked   post icon Dodge neon Humming noise when turning  

I just got my right front cv axle, my power steering fluid, and an alignment done. Next day I was turning left with speed and I hear a very loud humming sound. No obvious vibration per say. This only happens turning left at higher speeds, not going slow. I plan on talking to my mechanic on Tuesday about it but I don't want them to try charging me additionally unless its necessary. Any ideas? 2000 dodge neon at 95k miles. 4c 2.0.

I would get it back to the people that did the job. It's a bit suspicious. They may not have torqued the axle nut correctly and caused the bearing to come apart.

Even if they replaced the right axle and its when I turn left that makes the noise? I'm not sure how these axles work. I'd like to think the left axle wasn't touched but I don't want to sound like am idiot when I go in!

That would make perfect sense. Turning left would make the car lean to the right and transfer weight/load to the right side.

my old neon did the same thing and it ended up being the wheel bearing, when they took it into the shop the tire literally fell right off with a knock of a hammer, (a pretty good knock but nonetheless, not good) have them check for play in the wheels
