My car rotor is shot what will it look like?
if it is the brake rotor, then it may be "thinner" than a good rotor. It might also be warped, (wavy) cracked, chipped or pitted. Most of the time it is from excessive wear caused from constant friction with the brake pads. Sometimes caused by excessive heat generated from heavy loads or stoping from fast speeds. If it is the ignition rotor, then the contact area (strip of metal) will usually show pitting and corrosion.
Do you have to repack the wheel bearing on a 2004 Jeep Liberty if you replace the brake rotors?
No, you can remove and/or replace the front rotors on your Jeep Liberty without having to repack the wheel bearings. To remove the rotor, remove the brake caliper, and then pull the rotor straight off the wheel studs. If the rotor doesn't budge, then use an air hammer to tap the front face of the rotor adjacent to the wheel studs (the flat area of the rotor directly between the wheel studs). This will knock the rust loose and let the rotor slip off the studs. DO NOT use the air hammer on the braking [shiny] surface of the rotor!

What would cause a squeaking noise from the left front wheel area?
Many brake pads have a "warning indicator" which will squeak when the brake pads start to get near the end of their life. This "warning indicator" is usually nothing more than a small metal tab that protrudes out from the side of the pads backing plate pointing towards the brake rotor. As the pad wears, the distance between the metal tab and the brake rotor begins to shorten until a point is reached where the metal tab actually comes in contact with the break rotor. This causes the squeak as a warning to the driver that the break pads are low.
