Why does my Vauxhall Mokka make strange noises when I turn the steering wheel?

I recently purchased a Vauxhall Mokka and I've noticed that whenever I turn the steering wheel, it makes a creaking or grinding noise. It doesn't seem to affect the performance of the car, but it's quite annoying. I'm not sure if this is normal or if there's a problem with my car. Can anyone offer any insight or advice?

It's common for cars to make some noise when turning the steering wheel, especially when they are new. This could be due to the stiffness of the components settling in. However, if the noise is excessive or accompanied by other issues, it's best to get it checked by a mechanic.

I've been driving a Vauxhall Mokka for over a year now and have never experienced any strange noises when turning the steering wheel. It could be a sign of a potential issue, I suggest taking your car to a dealership for a thorough inspection.

I had the same issue with my Vauxhall Mokka and it turned out to be a loose steering wheel bracket causing the noise. I would advise getting it checked by a mechanic to avoid any safety hazards.
