take a look at your front rotors if the are not smooth then they need to be changed also check if they are warped that will be a little tricky if you dont know how. best bet is if you havent changed brakes in a while you should go ahead and do it. as far as the turning have your wheel bearings looked at and your tires if the bearing have failed they will cause a squeak or grind and if your tires are too big or out of round that will cause a vibration
