    I bought a 2017 Prius One 2 months ago. After I drive 2000 miles later and hit a broken recapped tire on highway about 55 mph. My steering wheel start makes weired grid noise when I make first turn in every cold start after that wheel won't makes any noise. And I ask dealer staff when I change car oil but he say my car has no problem. Why?

    I've never hit a broken recapped tire on the highway. But if I turn my steering wheel too far to the left or right, I hear a loud THUNK! :confused: Never heard that strange noise in any other car I owned.

    Can you make a video?
    Sound comes from inside the vehicle or outside?
