Why does my Nissan Patrol make a strange noise when I turn the steering wheel?

I recently noticed that my Nissan Patrol is making a strange noise whenever I turn the steering wheel. It almost sounds like a squeaking or grinding noise. I'm not sure what could be causing it, but I'm worried it may be a serious issue. Does anyone have any ideas or similar experiences?

It could be a sign of worn out steering components. I recommend taking it to a mechanic for a proper diagnosis and repair.

I had a similar issue with my Patrol and it turned out to be a loose power steering belt. Easy fix, just tighten it up.
