While driving a roaring noise occurs. Turning steeringwheel to the right increases the noise and to the left decreases the noise. You can also feel a vibration in the steering wheel. Can you give me an idea of potential problems?

Does the noise chance with speed? Does it make the noise when you are stopped? Is the power steering fluid full? Are the tires in good condition not cupped? Finally, could is sound like a bearing that is bad?

Let me know.

Does the noise chance with speed? Yes, louder when excellerating and slowing, maintained while holding speed.

Does it make the noise when you are stopped? NO, and their is not vibration in the steering wheel while stopped

Is the power steering fluid full? Yes

Are the tires in good condition not cupped? Yes

Finally, could is sound like a bearing that is bad. My husband has checked, as this is what was recommended, but they are ok.

Because it doesn't make noise when it is stopped, my recommendation is have the wheel bearings removed and checked.
