I have a subaru Outback that makes a noise that sounds like chirping birds when i am turning the wheel left. I would greatly appreciate any input! Thanks.

May be the tire is rubbing on the plastic splash guard, or the brake wear indicator is making contact (which it will when the brakes are worn down).
