Default Steering Vibration

Hello All

Lately my car has been doing some weird things, when turning at low speeds the steering wheel shudders like crazy, and when I go over bumps, the bumps are literally steering my car left or right. The suspension seems non-existent lately i feel every bump. Its also on Lovell lows suspension.

Ive just had the tires replaced and a wheel alignment done too

Any ideas why this is happening, give us a yell

Ill be taking it to a mechanic soon

Thanks

Yes, a scraping noise when turning right

And an odd noise full boosting hard right

It is also intermittent, as in i would have a day where it would shudder alot, and others days when its fine
