I noticed some slight hesitation in my car while taking a left-hand turn at certain speeds. At greater speeds, the car will actually begin to fail to turn (jerk in the opposite direction).
I'm assuming it has something to do with a part in the right wheel well (given force from a left-hand turn would be put on the right wheel). I inspected the CV boot as well as I could awhile ago (which I couldn't see terribly well) and it looked fine from what I could see. The other components in the area didn't look damaged or heavily worn in any way. Is it possible that this is a simple alignment problem... positive camber on the right side? I don't really notice any issues with the car in regard to its ability to keep in a straight line (on an even surface).
If you think that could be the problem, I do have a full-sized spare that I could use for testing.
Any thoughts?
