Weird clicking sound - rear left wheel

I noticed when I pull into my garage that the rear left wheel makes a clicking sound on left turns. It's only noticeable when my windows are down. Does anyone have this issue? Potential cause?

Check the tires for a stuck rock, nail, or screw.

A copy paste from an older thread:

I had something very similar! For me, there's a weird clicking noise whenever I'm braking or slowly moving. I had it checked out by the dealer and they told me a that a bushing on one of the upper control arms is damaged. Maybe you could possibly have the same issue.

I'm got it repaired under warranty so I'm not too sure how much this would run you if you happen to be out of warranty.

I hope this helps!

Fortunately I'm still under warranty until October and then another year of CPO

So I took the car to the dealership last week and got this fixed under warranty. Having been a northern car, the car had some rust around the front passenger wheel area which made the wheel not sit flush against the hub. They cleaned off the rust, replaced all the hardware (bolts and washers) and now the car is fine.

I highly doubt the wheel wasnt sitting flush. You would have terrible vibrations driving the car...

That's a fairly layperson's condensed explanation of the detailed inspection the dealership provided me
