lkatze2 Report post Posted February 19, 2019 My 2014 titanium is making a slight clicking or popping sound when turning the steering wheel. It makes the noise whether car is driving or just sitting still, but only when turning the steering wheel. It is just one pop/click sound. The noise is definitely come from the steering wheel or column area. Maybe the clock spring or bad bearing in column or bad column shaft ujoint?????? I know there is a recall for the steering wheel bolt replacement, but I am hoping the dealer does not tell me the whole column has to be replaced. Anybody else out there experience the same problem??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Larry Twitchell Report post Posted February 19, 2019 My ‘15 had a dragging noise but no popping sound.when I took it in for the steering wheel bolt treatment the noise ended. It’s a quick fix and I suggest you get it done.Hope you’re loving your FFH as much as I do mine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lkatze2 Report post Posted February 19, 2019 Thanks Larry, I am definitely going to take it in now for the steering wheel bolt recall. Hopefully it will solve the problem. The popping sound/feeling has been getting worse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

murphy Report post Posted February 19, 2019 The popping is most likely the bolts are no longer tight and the parts are moving around as the wheel is turned. It would be more noticeable with the car not moving since the forces are higher in that case. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My model year is before the bolt recall and it sure doesn't feel like a loose bolt. When you went to the dealer did they just do the recall or was there something they discovered loose in the clock spring area making that clicking pop noise. Appreciate any answer you can give!?
