Default Screeching sound when turning right

Hey guys, input needed

I have a 2008 s2k with approx 28000 miles. When back out of the garage, I hear a screeching sound coming from the front passenger wheels. It also sounds intermittently when driving straight. I notice it happens more often when i turn the steering to the left. It will Comes on and then off, bugs the crap out if me. Breaking is normal, no sound when breaking. U check out the front passenger area and nothing is out if ordinary. Change break pads maybe? Let me know if this is too vague. Thanks for the help!

Does it only happen backing out of your garage? Or backing up period? Some garage floors have a coating that makes tires squeak.

It doesn't happen before though, just started two days ago. I got the same noise when driving straight too. Come and goes intermittently. Might be the inner pad is worn or my wheel bearing. It almost always happen when i turn the steering wheel to the left. Thanks in advance

it's your brake pad. You're nearing the end of it's usable life. Consider getting them changed soon.
