I have a 2025 hybrid. If I’m in low and going down a long hill I hear a squealing noise from the front left. Any ideas before I call Ford.

You'll need to post a recording of the noise.

Which is less effort: making a recording and posting it? Or just going to a dealer with a 50/50 chance they will tell you everything is fine?

L is for a simulated low. Nothing mechanical changes. A sound because of L is remarkably unlikely.
It could be engine runup or electric motor whine. Need a recording to determine.

The dealer would blame it on wind noise over the tonneau cover and say it's not Ford's problem.
