Knocking on right side by tire

Topic starter

I have a 2014 Chevy Sonic and so far no issues at all (knock on wood) with 66K miles and it is a manual transmission. We are the original owners and bought it new in 2015 and have been happy with it... here in Alaska we get some massive pot holes every year and last winter (2019/2020 winter)I hit one pretty bad on the right front side and since then I've had a knocking sound I hear when I go over bumps that wasn't very noticeable at first but has been getting worse. The steering still feels at 100% and it isn't leaning or doesn't seem lower on that side but recently the tpms system has gone out. A friend mentioned it could be a tierod...

Ideas?

I do have video of the sound while driving 😉

Thanks for any feedback!

Good place to start is checking your sway bar links for excessive play.

Could be lots of things. Check your control arm bushings too.
