What makes a noise when you hit the brakes?

Noise stops under braking We’ve got a 2006 Nissan Note and there’s a noticeable squeaking coming from the driver’s side front wheel. It starts after about 5-10 minutes of driving and stops as soon as you touch the brakes, then starts again when you let off them. Also seems to be at 10-40MPH and not over that

Why is my front tire squeeking when I drive?

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. Again, this noise occurs only when the car is driven. Unlike a wear-indicator noise, the sound will persist when the brake is applied.

What should I do if I hear a thumping noise on my brakes?

Do this three to five times, while keeping a steady speed; the noise should disappear, or at least be 90% gone. Then drive the car at normal speeds and use the brakes the way you normally would. If the noise has not changed, you may have a different thumping noise than what I have described here in this article.

Why does my tire make noise when I turn a corner?

Alignment problems can also produce noise by causing tire scuffing. When the wheels are not aligned during a turn, a tire can shift sideways instead of rolling forward. Normal tire wear, when tire tread depth is very low, can lead to the same noise.

What causes a loud screeching noise when the car is in motion?

If there is a screeching noise when the vehicle is moving coming from the wheels, then the brakes need to be checked again. That type of noise is typically caused by a bad brake pad sensor. It is possible that your brakes are worn out again. It can occur if they were defective or if the brakes were not installed right before.
