Yesterday when i started driving my car (2g fwd) i got this loud screeching noise coming from what it seems to be the front passenger wheel. I thought maybe it was my brakes but after i drove it a little farther it went away, and it didnt happen when i applied the brakes i noticed it more when i hit bumps and when i was turning but also when i was going straight. Today it did the same thing but it seems to only happen when i first drive the car after awhile it seems to go away anyone got an idea of what this might be?

your accessory belts need tightened up...you can buy belt dressing at any autoparts store to kinda bandaide the problem until you have time to tighten them...soap works too..turn on you car and put some soap on the belt...again this doesnt solve the problem of them being loose but it will stop the screatching for a day

Maybe the dust shield touching the rotor.

Ball joint recall guys. Cmon, I'm pretty sure Ken's car made that noise before he took his junk in for that MINOR maintainance long long ago. Take your car into the dealer before your wheels fall off.
