Hello, after having pads and rotors changed on the front of vehicle, noticed a squeaking when making sharp right turns. CV boot is not split. Any suggestions? Thanks, Roosevelt.

Check the hardware on the calipers to be sure they are not touching the rotors. You can remove the rotor and see if you see scribe marks on it if it is touching anything.

Thanks. It seems to be the plate behind the rotor, I think it was bend when the new pads and rotors were installed. Thanks for answering!

Happy you solved it, but that splash shield could have become bent a long time ago. The new rotors are thicker so it's not uncommon for them to rub. Your mechanic should have caught that on the test-drive, but if it only made noise during a sharp turn, that might not have come up on the test-drive.
