Default Brakes have constant squeak during driving and when pressing the pedal?

Well, lately my brakes have begun to squeak intermittantly as im driving and its fairly high pitched. Its only on the passenger front and it makes more noise when turn right or turn right and back up. The squeak doesn't go away whether im using the pedal to stop or just driving around. Any ideas whats wrong or how i could fix it?

prolly ur brake clips. replace them if u take them off and can tell they have been rubbing against the rotor. the clips warp on all cars, i had this problem on my lexus, often people never replace them.

May be the pad wear indicator. They will squeak when they wear out. If it makes enough noise, someone will look at them and notice that it is replacement time. I'm guessing that is what you are hearing. Time to inspect them.
