1993 Saturn Sl2 155k miles. The problem i believe started when i went up a very steep driveway turning into it from the street and there was a huge pothole before the driveway.

Ever since, when i turn the wheel there is a "pop" noise from the front right end. and there is a bad grinding sound on the front right wheel. A person on the road pointed out that it was very wobbly.

When I jacked up the car and took the hub off. I noticed a dent in the rim and even after all the lug nuts were off i had to use wd-40 and tap the rim to get the tire off. but before i got it off i could actually press on the top of the wheel and it would go inward, same with the bottom.

My father in law said it could be the cv shaft/joint. I was just trying to ask all your gearheads out there if this was possible and try to get some more input. Thank you in advance :]
