Steering Noise
** I searched and got nothing so I figured I'd see if anyone has had a similar issue**
So I have a 16' RCF with 18k on the clock.. For some reason when I am stopped then go to turn right, from a stop, I hear this grinding noise. Similar to bad breaks (breaks are 80% and it happens without being on the brakes). Its intermittent and I cant seem to replicate the sound. Threw it up on the lift to take a look and found nothing loose or wrong without taking the plastics off. Everything is stock and I want to get it sorted out before I lower it and put wheels on it. My fear is a bad steering rack... a new car shouldn't ever make a grinding/squealing sound like that..

its still under warranty. Ive never seen a 13 and up GS or 15 and up RC have a bad steering rack. You might have debris rubbing the tire at full lock as you say
