Horrible noise help is the car falling apart?

[Kazz]

Hiya people can anyone help got a curtesy car as mine is in being repaired (accident not my fault) but the curtesy car is a Kia Piccaso really really small.
But the thing is only got it yesterday drove home. Today had to drive it and a terrible terrible scary noise when turning left.....no idea what it is a really loud "horrible noise" like something grating I suppose is the best description.
I am going to phone them tomorrow but anyone any idea what it is please.....

Is the steering rack on it's way out? could be a wheel bearing

[Kazz]

God knows Emma but it sounds awful I am really dubious of it never heard anything like it in over 25 years of driving. I "trust" my cars but this thing is scary.

Could be the brake pads Kazz, how old is the car??

[Jac]

Get it back to them woman! Whatever it is it isn't right.

[Kazz]

Don't know Moli, the reg is LA56???? but tell you something it is going back they can give me another it is scary. And I have to take Sophie somewhere Sat and no way am I letting her in that car.

[Moli]

Its a year old.....certainly would not use it Kazz, take it back and ask for something else...

[Kazz]

I hate these new reg I can't suss them maybe its because I can't be bothered :)
Anyhow I am phoning them tomorrow and they can find me something else or give me mine back and I'll wait till another car becomes available.

I had that problem with my new car at the beginning of this year Karen, sounds like exactly the same noise! It was something to do with the brakes.

It might be something fairly simple. Two weeks ago we heard a bang and then an almighty grating, scraping noise. The garage checked it out and found it was a small stone in the wheel which they removed free of charge!
