Clicking noise when moving steering wheel back and forth

[bamsho]

Have them check the bushings on the rack where it mounts to the subframe.  Left side went bad on my 2012.

Purchased my new 2013 pp sho back in 8/13,then about 2 months later,started hearing the tick sound coming from the front end,especially when parked and turning the wheel back and forth its more obvious,very important issue is the wheel hub assembly has to be changed and also updated heavy duty Timken brand hub should be used and your issue should be resolved,also a bad hub can cause a dtc code B100,can be checked with your tuner,hope this helps

If this is the sound it's the Hubs, + 1 for the heavy duty Timken brand hub. If you can get the dealer to have FMC pay for it!

Thanks again.  Definitely the same sound.  Looks like I need new hubs.... Wtf

SHO is scheduled for her service visit on Monday.  Wish me luck.  Hopefully don't get the run around.  At least it's easy to duplicate.

For the other member goodluck mon,first thing no doubt its a warranty issue,then try very imprtant try to have them due both sides,cause you dont want to go through the hassle again if the other side goes bad down the road,i personally think its the wheel hub assembly,but my last visit to the dealer for the same issue,they stated and printed a copy of the part tht needs to to be specially ordered is the washer for the cv joint,i guess for them its cheaper and less labor than doing the wheel hub assembly,also want to make sure they do a wheel alignment.

^^ +1, also have them duplicate the noise on the lift as noted earlier. If they can duplicate the noise on the lift it's easier for them to justify the cost to replace the hubs.

Good luck, sir!

Just for completeness you might have them look at the EPS unit... While more of a clunk than click, several folks have had broken teeth, etc there.

That's the hub.  I had both the TSB washers replaced and that did fix that noise.  The washer noise is more when accelerating and turning.

I then had the exact noise you have on the right hub.  They replaced my right hub under warranty.  I tried talking them into doing the left side, but they wouldn't go for or until it makes noise.

They changed the right hub and the noise was gone.

I agree with JMR76 it is certainly the wheel hub issue but best of my knowledge this is pertaining to the 2013 sho,not earlier models so basically its a new common issue that has to be resolved,i wonder if the 2014 was affected or hopefully they corrected this issue,and also what the update was,I also see that the majority affected are the 2013 PP SHO.

Correct it's a 2013 + PP and police pack cars only. They use hubs with part number HUB200. These are the hubs affected. Non pp and pre 2013 do not seem to be affected.

Is there a TSB?   Do the new parts correct problem or will it happen again?

No TSB as far as I know, it's a toss up, mine seem to be ok still. But I have been through 2 sets of hubs. If mine go again I will try to force the Timken hubs on the dealer. If not I may just do it myself. Good luck!

I have the same noise as well... Looks like I'll be telling the dealership when I bring her in for the oil change.
