Why is my Ford Mondeo making a grinding noise when I accelerate?

I recently purchased a pre-owned Ford Mondeo and have been experiencing a strange grinding noise when I accelerate. It almost sounds like metal scraping against metal. What could be causing this and is it safe to drive?

It's possible that your brakes are worn and need to be replaced. I would suggest taking your car to a trusted mechanic to have them inspect it and make any necessary repairs before continuing to drive it.

I had a similar issue with my Ford Mondeo and it turned out to be a faulty wheel bearing. I would recommend having all of your wheel bearings inspected to see if this is the cause of the grinding noise.
