Tires: Unknown Tire or Wheel Noise on Passenger Side, bf goodrich tires, passenger tire


Question
John: I recently had all new BF Goodrich tires and all new brake pads put on my 1998 Ford Explorer XLT. It has 131000 miles on it - I am the second owner of it. Now I have a squeaking/rubbing sound coming from my rear passenger tire area. It doesn't seem to be getting hot or anything. What is your best guess? I really cannot afford a huge garage bill right now because I just spent $500 on books for college. Thanks! Kelly

Answer
Kelly,
It is best and for your safety that you have it looked at ASAP.  
There are shops that do free brake checks.  I believe Mono does.
It could be one of many things.
If you just had this done and this sound was not there prior, take it back to where the job was done and have them fix the problem at no charge to you.
Good luck,
John
