Default wierd steering noise

i own a 2004 gt, with 13000 miles on it. and when ever it turn the steering wheel, even a little, i get a wierd noise coming from the steering linkage, sounds like a creeking noise. can it be a bushing that is bad. or someing even worse. the car is still under its warrenty, so im not that cancered about the cost. just looking to see if it is safe and what is wrong.

blinker fluid.. lol. Anyway. I don't know with only having 13,000 miles, maybe a ball joint, but who knows. Like you said still under warranty so just take it in. Does it only happen when you turn it one way? or both?
