Check if the rubber boots on either of the axles are torn. When that happens, the oil leaks out and the joint is left unlubricated.

fixed


OP: axles or ball joints probably. get under the car and take a look.

if there's no rips in the boots, try to wiggle the wheel back and forth by hand to see if there's any play. if there is, you likely need new lower ball joints.
