I would first suspect a power steering fluid leak causing
insufficient fluid in the system. I think the noise is the
pump.

Check the power steering fluid reservoir's level first.
Report back. I do not recommend driving this car at this
point. Assuming the pump hasn't been destroyed yet, it could
be due to lack of fluid.

www.autozone.com has a free online manual for your Accord
that discusses the power steering system.

Dunno about the tires.

Power steering pump belt. Get it tightened or replaced.

They *all* are, provided they're mounted properly. That's the hard part.

Yah, i assumed it was the power steering belt...therefore the reservoir for
the power steering fluid is still full and no leaks in every part's or
tubes...
