Suggest you have the front suspension checked. Specifically, the ball joints and the rack tie rod bushings.

If you hear clicks, it's the ball joints. One of my friends GS's ball joint broke this past weekend. You will hear a clicking sound when you back up and also when you turn your wheel to the left/right.

As far as I can tell it wasn't ignored, your link just didn't work.
