Angry Nails on ChalkBoard type noise in front end!!

Like the title says there is a noise in the front end when i turn to the right and sometimes to the left!! It sounds like two pieces of metal rubbing against each other!! It's really nasty and it gets on my nerves!!
Has anyone else had this problem?? If so how can it be fixed or do i have to go to the dealership and how long would it take for them to fix it!! Any help would be appreciated!!

it would help if you could list any mods you've made to the front.
Like do you have wider rims/ tires?

How many miles on the car? Have you checked all bearings/joints up front?

Take it to the dealer and do a test drive with the representative. Could be your end links or anything, Erik

it's an '07 with under 10K and no mods... why wouldn't you just take it to the dealer?

Sounds like the power steering pump may be going bad.
