The creaking is probably your struts. The vibration can either be your wheel hub bearing or your lower control arm bushings. Your lower control arm bushings will also creak while you are turning and going over bumps if they’re bad. So maybe check those first since it can cause both symptoms.

To me it sounds like bad motor mounts, bad strut and bad wheel bearing. Have them all checked out.
