Noise While Steering After Strut Replacement

[amol_pat]

Hi everybody,

I just had my front struts and springs replaced on my 95 ES300 from a mechanic. I have not had it aligned yet. Whenever I take sharp turns (e.g. getting out of the driveway etc.), there is a humming kind of noise from the power steering as I turn. I hear the noise only when I am turning the wheels. I had never heard this noise before the struts/springs were replaced. The car is definitely unaligned since it slightly pulls toward the right side. Power steering fluid level is normal.

Can some expert suggest what the problem could be? Will 4 wheel alignment help?

thanks,

AP
