So I upgraded my 2006 1500 SLT with a much fancier 2014 Big Horn 4x4 last week. I've noticed that when I use 4x4 auto I get a grinding sound from the driver side front wheel. It only makes this noise when going between 5 and 15 mph and It makes no sound at all when in 2 wheel drive. Any thoughts here?

3 year, 36k so yes but I'd prefer Carmax deal with this since that's where I bought it. My carmax 30 day bumper to bumper should be their problem, not mine.

i would try them first, but they might just tell you to take it to the dealer, or they will take it there themselves.

Sounds like a bad front hub.
Definitely talk to the dealer about warranty if you can. Those are a pricey item to replace.

You better get it fixed fast. Carmax is good, but if it gets expensive like it did with my wife's flex. 2 days after we got it the cel came on for the gas cap less system ford has now. They fixed it and then 2 weeks later it happened again. I called and left several voice mails trying to get it back in and then the 30 days past and they pretty much washed their hands of it. I had to have ford fix it. I bought my truck there also and knock on wood minus a tail light bulb being out, and the passenger side seat belt being replaced it was near perfect.
