My liberty recently started making this sound. The only way I can describe it as it sounds like the tire rubbing on the inner fender well lining, but it’s not. I have attached a sound clip to see if anyone can point me in the right direction. I crawled underneath it and don’t see any tears in the boots or anything out of place. Maybe wheel bearing/ hub assembly. Here’s a link to YouTube.

It’s only on right hand turns even slightly and under acceleration going straight. Won’t make the sound making a left turn or under light acceleration

I name it Frick.


Not sure that sounds rotational to me. Would definitely look around the driveshafts to make sure something isn't touching. Could also be a heat shield fallen ontop of the exhaust.

Actually it sounds remarkably similar to my XJ and the source is the tailpipe rusted off the hanger and rubs.
