Default high pitch metal rubbing noise when turned lock to lock?

Hi guys, I have this problem ever since I got the car, so when I turn the wheel lock to lock, I can hear a kinda high pitch metal rubbing noise, it's quite loud that I can hear it from inside windows all closed, and of course outside, the sound only come out right at both end, if I turn the wheel just a little bit off the end, all the sound are gone, and the sound it always there whether the car is stationary or moving. I checked the steering fluid and it seem right at where it should (right at the line). So what is causing these sounds? It's quite annoying cause I can hear it every single time I park the car. Will this be a costly problem to fix? Thanks in advance.

You are bottoming the power stearing. Just don't turn the wheel so far and you'll be OK.
