I'm getting tire scrub / light grabbing on my 2022 Expedition Timberline (ESLD). Only noticeable on low speed turns around 20 mph -- when in 2H. The car has 22,000 miles; I am the second owner. Somewhere I saw that a fluid change might be the first thing to try to fix it. I would appreciate any advice.

I'm not sure I understand, which tires are scrubbing? Front, as in a plowing understeer? Or, an inside rear tire loss of traction? Or, other?

Tight turns in parking lots? Or tight turn into the driveway? I think that is just normal and happens, my jeep does it too and always has.

Drive it to a parking lot, put it in 4A and do a tight (full motion of the steering wheel side to side) figure eight at a speed the tires do light squeak. That’s not an official Ford fix, but it is something Mercedes and others do to clear out the disks. This trick works for me every time so far.
