Yes, absolutely. First step in diagnosis is to get under the car while it's up on stands and try to wriggle the CV's to look for play, then check the ball joints on both sides as well as the sway bar links. Last of all check the steering box, I had mine start making loud clacking noises one day and a few days later it froze up solid while trying to do a U-turn. [emoji30]
