    I suspect that my car has a damaged CV joint because I always here a grinding noise at the wheel area, only when I make a turn though.

    Is it dangerous to drive if this defect remains as is? Is there a possibility that I will lose control of steering of the wheels?

    Have it fixed ASAP. It'd be dangerous for you to driving aroud with a defective CV. Once the CV and bearings give way, you'd loose much of your control over steering - as I've experienced 1st hand with an old ride. Good thing I was just making a u-turn in front of my house. Had it happened on the freeway....

    if you use it too much the bearings could come lose and possibly pop out or break off.

    i doubt it's a cv joint. malamang it's the stablinks. pero better to have it checked para sure.

Constant Velocity Joint
