My alero has done this twice now. I found out the problem is switch for the blinker is bad. Both times for me it has stopped making the noise before I actually got it fixed, so I haven't actually had mine replaced yet. The module inside the steering column that has both turn signal and wipers connected to it is the problem. You can remove the top cover of the steering column, disconnect the electrical connections and remove the module. There is one torque screw on top of the module. If you take the unit apart you can clean the terminals and put new grease(small amount) on them. There is a spring in the center of the unit that can be tricky to keep in when putting back together. Watch carefully as you open the module to see how the spring rests. When putting the module back on be sure to depress the connector on the front of the unit (facing you as you sit in the driver seat) so that it goes behind and rest on the circular metal plate on the steering column.

It's probably a broken engine mount. I have an 04 Alero and mine was broken. Jerking stopped when I replaced it.
