Re: Knocking and grinding sound coming from front tire...
Check your outer cv joint boot and see if it is severely torn. It sounds like the cv joint is about to come apart, especially if you notice the noice being more pronounce when turning one way or another.

Hi there - S Wilkins here. Could be a front hub bearing or axle CV joint. You may be able to raise the front wheels and move them around and find what is loose.
The knocking on the front could be a ball joint and the rear could be a suspension linkage. The grinding might be a wheel bearing. Does the grinding change with road speed? The window problem could be the actual switch. Try using the switch on the drivers control AND for the window in question. The switch where the fault happens is the one you need to replace.
It sounds like the brake pads are metal to metal, when you turn the flexing of the wheel makes them touch the rotor and grind. This can rarely be caused by a badly worn wheel bearing as well, have both brakes and wheel bearing inspected.
i have a 1997 honda accord ex. i have a knocking noise in the front end up to 25mph and goes away until you hit about 55mph then it comes back but it also goes away with the slightest turn of the steering wheel. what could this be? please help me, i been stuck on this for 5 days now. thanks.
Sounds like you are leaking brake fluid. The grinding sound may be from the brake pad not disengaing from the rotor because of low brake fluid pressure. Have this checked immediatley you may loose all brake function!!
your front brake pads may be metal to metal (worn out) or there is a small rock stuck in the rotor area, onluy way to know is pull the front wheels off and inspect the brake pads and the rotors
