What would be the cause of scrapping noise coming from brakes when the brake is not applied?
you need to replace your brake pads. if you don't, in due time, they will wear down and put grooves on your rotors and that is NO bueno.
The distance it takes to stop once the brakes are applied?
It depends on how fast you are traveling, how well your brakes work and how much braking force is applied. If you are going 1 mph and slammed down on the brake you would stop instantly. If you are going 100 mph and lightly touched the brake who knows when you would stop.
Would a bad brake booster cause front left brake to lock?
No. The booster only takes the pressure from your foot and multiplies the force being applied to the master cylinder. Plus if it was bad you would hear a distinctive hissing noise everytime you hit the brakes. You probably have a stuck caliper pin, clogged hose or stuck piston.
What would warped brake rotors cause a car to do?
In general, warped brake rotors will cause a vehicle to shake when the brakes are applied. If the problem is severe, it will also have some impact on the ability of the driver to control the car when braking. If a car shudders or shakes when the brakes are applied but is otherwise smooth when driven, the brakes are a most logical cause.
