Exclamation Yaris makes a grinding noise while turning

I hit a curb last week and now every time I turn I've noticed my Yaris making a grinding noise. What do you guys think it is? I hope nothing serious or expensive

Yeah I was afraid it may be an axle problem but I figured I would always hear and not just during turns. Could it be something break related?

If you ONLY hear it while turning it probably inst brakes. The brake disc/caliper turns with the wheel. take a good look inside the wheel well and see if you see any signs of rubbing. This could be axle/suspension related, but it could also be something simple like a fender well liner rubbing the tire at full lock.

Grinding while turning? I'd guess hub bearing, possibly bent shield?

About how much will that cost to fix?

And is it anything serious or could I get away with just leaving it?

Dude, he said the word GUESS.

If it's a shield, no biggy. Anything else needs to be addressed. You hit a curb, car now makes noise as a result. Get it checked out.
