My car has 3k miles, it was good till a few days ago... Now when I ride over some bumps or only when i am steering at very low speed i feel a "clack" in the steering wheel like coming from the front suspension. I don't know what that might be but I am really concerned about being something bad. Anyone feeling a "clack" coming from the front suspension? Maybe front sway bar??
Thanks for your input!

Pull your heat deflector shield away from the brake discs a little bit.
Someone else had the same problem (as did I). Here's a link to what I did.

I'm not sure what sound you're imitating by "clack", but if there is a sensation other than sound that goes with the "clack", that probably isn't something so simple as the heat deflector, and you may need to take your car in and have them use a grinder on the area between the hub and your wheel. There are several threads about this problem. Seems that there is paint or something on some cars between the wheel and hub that doesn't allow the wheel to sit right, resulting in a "clicking" when the wheel is under a little torsional stress.

Thanks lucas, That is another problem my car has.. WHen I am turning left or right at low speeds I hear a click click sound coming from the front wheels.. WHen i turn left the right wheel sounds and the opposite too. How can I fix this problem? We have put it on the hoist 2 times and were unable to find anything.... Its embarrasing when I have to make tight turns at parking lots, because everybody stares at me like "WTF that sounds bad!!!"
