Default Deep sound/ slight vibration, disapppears during left turn

I have an issue with my chrysler pt cruiser. When i drive straight forward theres a deep noise, it disapppears when i move my steering wheel slightly to the left or do a left turn. It feels like something is touching during driving. What can be the cause?

Year and mileage?

I would suspect a front wheel bearing, possibly the left one since turning left will transfer the weight to the right and take pressure off of the left bearing and add pressure to the right. If one bearing is bad, the other may not be far behind and I suggest replacing both.

One item of note are ground wires between the body and strut intact? If these are broken it will cause issues with the bearings.

Or you can do what what my spouse did, JUST TURN UP THE RADIO......
