Default Noise From Drivers Side Wheel Well

I have been experiencing squeaking from the front drivers side as well. This mainly happens when I'm going at low speeds such as 0-10 MPH such as cruising around parking lots going over speed bums and other road imperfections. It also occurs when I tap the brakes slightly. I was unsure if it was the suspension so I started rocking the driver side and couldn't simulate the noise. Also the steering wheel jerks to the left as I brake hard which I read was a result of bad LCA bushings and think that the bushings might be causing this noise or if that's another issue on its own. If it helps any my front wheel fitment is 235/55/18 and rubs only on left turns on the drivers side wheel well slightly and also has 144k miles. If anyone has any input I'm all ears. Thanks in advance.

P.S. If anyone is in the Metro Detroit Area of MI let me know!

It sounds like your brakes are sticking or dragging where the caliper is not releasing and staying applied. Inspect your calipers, pins and sliders.
Also I'm surprised you're even able to turn the steering wheel with those tires, lol
