Default weird steering issue?

ive just noticed this last night, and kinda test drove it today.. but every time im in gear and take a hard right turn i get very slight vibrations in the steering wheel and i hear a high pitched "humming" sound while i take the turn? for some reason it doesnt do this while im in nuetral though? any ideas?

Where's the sound coming from? Front/rear? Left/right? Could be something like a wheel bearing or such.

mine did that, had a whine when i made turn especially cross intersection long turns. it was the rack and pinion had to get it all replaced, luckily the warrenty covered it. Sounds like a humming as you turn sometimes you hear it sometimes u dont
