Front track rod end ball joint has slight play.

And front brake imbalance.
If the ball joint is able to move in its socket it means that it needs replacing.
There will then be play between the ball joint and the socket on the track rod end.
If that s the case it really needs replacing as soon as possible.
As you will need to work under the front of the car jack up that end and support it on axle stands placed under chassis members.

It would appear the braking system requires adjustment or repair.
