Loud repetitive squeaking noise from front passenger wheel well??
Hey guys whenever Im at highway speeds there is a fast, repetitive squeak coming from my front passenger wheel well and I cannot figure out what it is. I can only hear it at highway speeds and whenever I tap my brakes even the slightest it goes away then comes back when I let off brakes. It is extremely annoying and embarrassing. Im taking it to dealership monday but was wondering if anyone has any ideas? thanks.

Springs would be my guess.
By tapping the brakes you are adding just a little extra compression to the springs which hold them in place and thus preventing the squeak.

If the issue was springs it should be covered under my bumper to bumper warranty right?

there are also small dust shields on the inner side of the rotor. If they are just lightly touching the rotor it could be making the noise and when you apply the brakes there is enough other material touching the rotor to dampen that noise(vibration) out so you can't hear it anymore then.
