It is possible that you can have some free play in one of your inner or outer tie rod ends. I would recommend having your inner and outer tie rod ends inspected by a qualified professional to determine if they have any free play. If the tie rod ends have any free play, I would strongly recommend having them replaced as soon as possible to avoid any safety issues that may result.
