Just picked up my 14' wrangler from the dealership, beautiful condition, 1 owner. Never heard this while test driving, of course.
Based on the service report, it had the brakes and rotors replaced and brand new wheels and tires put on.

Sounds like something rubbing on the rotor?

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
Justin

I couldn't hear anything on your video.

If you just bought it then if it was me i'd take it back to them and they should find out what it is and fix it.

Thanks, it appears to work on my end, scraping metal sound. I plan on taking it back, wanted to have a few ideas of what it could be before going over.

To confirm if its the brakes / wheels: Id get it up to 30/35 mph, lightly apply the brake and note if the sound stops.

Certainly sounds like something in a wheel. Guessing right front, since its so audible.
 
Very easy to get bent when doing rotor change. Easy fix if that’s it. Pop wheel off and bend er back with a large screw-drive-her. Had a rock bend mine once and sounded very similar. Let us know when u find the fix. And always keep jeepin.

I had the exact same problem! Mine was the right front. There's definitely a metal on metal sound in your video. Maybe even picked up a cinder/small stone and got it stuck in the caliper. Had that happen too.
