i own a repair shop and it sounds like you either have a bad wheel bearing in it,or a front CV joint going out ,if its grinding now that's a bad sign,id take it and have it checked out real good,this could become a safety hazard real fast on that one,good luck i hope this helps.

Check the wheel bearings. Jack up front and try to wobble tire. Should not move. If does needs new bearings. If it is bad enough to slow car down and grind it will also need new spindle.

First, change on your lights and verify for a foul or blown bulb....or if in case you've a foul flasher. pass to automobile Zone or an same position, and they'll hook you up with a sparkling one, or perhaps print out set up instructions. it will be an undemanding plug in set up, i imagine, placed in or close to the fuse panel. Plus a flasher isn't expensive. wish this information helped

You have a bad c.v. joint if it is a front wheel drive car. Get it repaired asap.

No.
Steering stop bolt broke off and is alowing you to turn the wheel too far.
