Depends on what you mean by rubbing on wheel well?

if the wheel is bent inwards, so when the steering is set straight ahead, the damaged wheel is angled inwards or outwards then the tracking arm is bent!

if the wheel well has dropped on the damaged side then it probably is the suspension!

Front end vibration at 40 mph and rubbing sound

Vibration at 40 mph hard to diagonisis without looking at front end. Could be wheels need balancing, new wheels and rims. Loose or worn suspension items.
Bring vehicle into a tire and alignment shop. Most Sears auto center have them.
With regards to rubbing noise again hard to diagonisis without looking at the affected tire, probably a splash shield hitting the tire in reverse.
Alignment shop will find the problem.

Vibration in steering columb

It's very possible that the tire itself could have a busted belt.Inspect it good and i would put it in the rear because of the stress it was put in could now blow.So if it looks alright and no bulges are visible you can put it in the rear.



I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/joe_a3369546f8067589

Very loud "rubbing " sound when driving only

you did damage to the wheel bearing i bet it sounds like a airplane sound. also if you steering wheel is off 7"then have front end aligned because this will destroy the tires and they will make noise.

04 Expedition Front end Noise?

did you recently have new tires or rims put on? because it sounds like your tires are rubbing on your wheel well/mud flaps. if that's the case you'll either need to: downsize the tires/rims, remove the plastic covering the wheel well (not the body panel of course), or you could always get a lift haha :)....hope this helps ya out, good luck!

Steering wheel is 180 degrees off

Good Day'
If she hit that hard I would recommend to get a wheel alignment do.
It's a good chance that it is now out, plus they well check all the components.

please let me know how you made out.
