Help please, trying to fix squeaking sound after wreck.
OK I now have the tire on the car and it drives good except for one major problem. Whenever the car starts to move I hear a squeaking noise from the passager side by the ear tire. OK here is what I can say. It makes the noise whenever I'm going forward and when I brake the noise gets louder. But if I lay into the brakes hard the squeaking noise goes away. Also it does not make the noise when I go in reverse.
I started to think it could be the fact the rim took suck a bad impact it may have been bent. But as far as I know it wouldn't change pitch and loudness say when applying the brake. I'm thinking maybe it could something to do with the braking system? A bad caliper or a warped rotor maybe?
What sucks is that I thought we have solved the problem. Today I noticed it was easy to pull the E-Brake (to easy) and come to find out the E-Brake was sticking, well fixed that problem but that did not get rid of the squeaking sound.
So guy any ideas as to what could be causing this sound and what I can do to fix it?
I know some of you may remember my post about the accident but if not go here.

Exactly, the brake pads could be worn or they may not be riding on the full surface of the rotor. I've seen one pair of pads that were riding in the recess between the rotor surface and hub. Exact same symptoms that you have.

Well, I checked the pads, the pads are not dirty from what I can tell and I even gave them a good cleaning to make sure. I have also noticed too that the pads are now taking rust off of the rotor in different places so from what I can tell the pad is hitting the rotor in a different place (taking rust off offf more of the outsdie of the rotor now).
