“Around sept. 2019 my 2014 Subaru crosstrek started making a clicking noise when I made a left or right turn from a stop. My Subaru had 47,000 miles on it. The noise continued to get worse and it started having a vibration in it. Its now starting to catch when you make a left or right turn from a stop. I had it checked out and was told my cv axles are bad and that's causing the problem.”
