Why does my left wheel squeal when I Turn Left?
Now don’t change speed but turn sharply to the left. If the noise gets softer or it’s pitch goes down, the bad bearing is likely on the left, as by turning left you’re making the left wheel go around slower, which should make a bad bearing go down in pitch, and you’re putting less weight on the left side, which strains the left bearing less.
What to do about high pitch squeal from front passenger side wheel?
If the noise did not go down, try turning to the right. If that decreases the noise or the pitch, it suggests the prob is on the right. This technique is not foolproof.
Why does my car make a squealing noise when I drive?
Worn Out Brake Pads The most common reason for squealing when driving is worn out brake pads. When the pads have their upper surface scraped, the metal underneath is exposed, which causes the squealing when they come in contact with other surfaces. Stuck pins in brake caliper assembly can also cause a squealing sound.

Why does my car make a high pitched squeak when I drive?
Many noises may appear to be tire noises but are not. In older cars a rusted or bent brake-backing plate may contact the back surface of the brake rotor and, much like a wear indicator, cause a high-pitched squeak.
If the noise did not go down, try turning to the right. If that decreases the noise or the pitch, it suggests the prob is on the right. This technique is not foolproof.
Why does my car make a grinding noise when I drive?
Wheel Bearing Failure In some cases, this squealing noise may be due to a worn out axle or wheel bearing. The bearings act as a buffer between the wheel and axle and when they wear out, there is friction, leading to squealing. If the problem is ignored for long, the wheel bearing noise will transform from being a squeal to a grinding sound.
