2025 Toyota 4runner Steering Problems

When you make left or right turns at speeds over 30 mph, you feel a knocking sensation through the steering wheel, accompanied by a slight clunking noise on longer turns like highway ramps. This is distinct from the vehicle's driver assist feedback. The steering system may have loose or worn components that shift during cornering.

Your steering wheel makes creaking and knocking noises when you turn it left and right. This is likely caused by worn or loose components in the steering column or upper steering shaft area. A mechanic will need to inspect and likely lubricate or replace worn steering column bushings or intermediate shaft components.
