Hi,
My car is making noise at the front side of the driver when I turn left or drive straight more than 10 days constantly and the noise is Jak Jak Jak Jak Jak Jak Jak Jak Jak.

This can honestly be many different things. It could be anything from a wheel bearing failing to a ball joint that’s loose to another suspension part or even something stuck in the caliper or rotor. Your best option is to have it up on the lift or up in the air, then listen and visualize to the front end to see where the noise is coming from. With higher mileage vehicles again, it can be a wheel bearing, a ball joint that’s loose, and upper control arm or even bushings. If you need a diagram of the suspension components, please let me know. I’ll be more than happy to upload them here for you.
