Hi Folks, I discovered this "NOISE" while turning slowly in a parking garage. It's pretty loud. Its from a 23 Lariat. I have almost 30K on her.. just wondering if I should take it in before Warranty expires and if I do what do I tell them to look at? I attached a video which hopefully helps diagnose the issue. Thanks for your time!

Ball Joints or tie rod ends, it sounds like they need some lube (Stab in the dark).

Suggest taking it to your dealer. They will be able to help out.

Ball joint or tie rod dry socket.

If you have a grease gun, get one of these and poke it thru the rubber boot on each so you can pump grease inside then go do some figure 8's in a field or empty parking lot. https://share.google/WFbLzgJKZZspxy0hM

I had similar issue. Ended up replacing the left tie rod.
