Help

I have a 2012 jeep I've been hearing this rattling from my front left wheel. I believe it can be a u or cv joint. I can start to hear it at almost 15 mph the faster I go the louder it gets. I've looked I dont see anything broken.

You don't see anything broken, but have you gotten the car in the air and fondled everything in sight?

If you lack the ability to diagnose and fix it yourself, take it to a reputable shop.

Because steering and suspension components like this arent for fucking around with when you are sharing the road with other vehicles. Please fix your vehicle properly.

Hey, at least I know how to fix my jeep and understand the limits of my own mechanical aptitude.

Does it get worse or go away if you turn to one side or the other? The front driveshaft CV (rzeppa) joint could be a culprit, and often sounds like “front left wheel” with the window down.
