I have a 1999 Galant and when I turn my wheel to the left it kinda thumps. I thought I needed a wheel hub assembly but the shop just called and said my wheel bearing is fine. Any help?????

I think BKLYNLANG is right. I had the same problem with a Prelude. If you continue to drive the car it will start to thump all the time and eventually the vibration will back off your lugs sending your rim flying and you setting on the side of the road. I drove my car for a month with the thumping. Whenever I would break I would fill it through the pedal. I would have it fixed soon. (I tryed to do a quick fix by putting a boot on the car, no good.) Hope this helped.
