2001 Mercury Sable LS problem?

I have a 2001 Mercury Sable LS Premium and every time the car goes over a few bumps in the road or when I'm pulling in and out of my driveway which has a slight dip I hear a squeaking/popping noise from the left front wheel also when I'm driving slowly around 20MPH the front of the car wobbles somewhat. Any and all info helps. Thanks.

    Very likely you have a dry/worn out ball joint. Both should probably be replaced at this point.

    Have you ever tried to switch the battery yet? It's as a substitute possible for the battery to have a shorted or open cellphone that could very with ease hold you from putting any variety of cost on it. Try taking the cables off the battery and hooking your jumper cables straight to them. This will not work to leap the automobile however it is going to support you see that the whole lot else is working properly.

    known for bad struts and broken springs, but check the ball joints and tie rod ends as well
