Everytime I start the car in the morning and start backing out of the garage I go to turn the steering wheel fully one time like bang (bump noise) comes out of the front right side of the car. I checked if anything was loose or broken but everything seems normal. It has been happening now for a while only in the morning on the cold start. Anyone has that issue. Appreciate any advise!!!!!!

Take it to the dealer but it may be a worn ball joint or steering knuckle.

Thanks for the info. Just took it to the dealer today. Hopefully they can figure out what it is so I dont have to go back and forth with the same problem.
