93 ford Thunderbird LX, 3,8 V6 not supercharged pulls to right when braking, a rattle is heard when going over the smallest of bumps but disappears when brake is applied. Also squeaks when turning or going over bumps. I was told squeak was bushing for strut but what about pull to right when braking and rattle that goes away when brake applied.
The squeaking sounds like a wheel bearing going bad. And the pulling to one side is cause by unequal braking pressure caused by plugged rubber brake hose, bad calipers or wheel cylinders. Check the bearings by lifting the car with a jack, block the wheels, and use a jack stand for safety. now wiggle the tire around. If it has any play, the bearing is bad. Replace it. I would replace your brakes as well. Good luck

If they are wearing down, they may squeak, and some brakes have a metallic part that will come in contact with the rotor when the wear gets to a certian point making an awful squeaking sound telling you that mabe you should change 'em soon, eh

i would still bet youre dealing with worn brake pads, theres an off chance it has a bearing issue but brakes are first thought. maybe has caused them to wear down quicker ie. holding caliper, restricted flex hose, or even economy parts from previous repair.

I HAVE A 2003 DURANGO THAT DOES THE SAME, IT IS EITHER THE CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS (UPPER AND LOWER) OR THE TORSION BARS AND/ OR BUSHINGS!!!

This could possibly be the brake wear indicators.
They make a squealing sound when new brakes are needed.

does your car squeek going over bumps?levelroad?can you push on the front fenders or rear fenders and create the squeek?upper strut mounts ,sway bar end links,body bushings,steering rack mounts,can cause squeeks. try spraying wd-40 on the bushing one ay a time then test drive untill you find the cause.also may want to try and retorque all the bolts that hold the bushings.wish you the best.
