Getting ready to exit a side street and car wouldn't go. I heard a thump, cracking noise and they it felt as if the wheel well had something stuck inside. Turned out that the ball joint was the culprit.

Prematurely the vehicle will get out of alignment. This would cause the steering wheel to pull to the left. Dealership was notified, but did not resolve the problem.
