Here we will see the rolling noises coming from the wheels of the Kia Pride. It's a problem that can happen as much front, rear, left or right wheel . In general, it is a thud , quite similar to the sound naturally produced by the wheel, but more intense and more serious. This noise should be pronounced when you turn the steering wheel in one direction, unless both sides are damaged. If this is the case, this noise may come from the wheel bearings.
