Having some rubbing sometimes when stopping. had brakes,shocks,all joints checked all good.?

what would you have checked next and could it be a tire?when should you have your brake pad changed? it is a pontiac g6 2006. i have had the rotors turned 3months ago and 2 tires got screws in them .be sides that i have had no problems but i am going to have some extra money and i want to find out and fix this problem why i can i just i;m having a huge problem finding it.One other thing is the front passenger tire was when you drove it felt like you were running over something as you drove and we swapt the two fronts and it sopped i still took it in to the shop and they said there was nothing wrong with the tire or anything else and it is really confusing how it was so horrible like you were running over pinecones on one side and now that it is on the other side of the car it does not. some one please help me this is getting so frustrating.thanks for all the help ahead of timeHaving some rubbing sometimes when stopping. had brakes,shocks,all joints checked all good.?1. Not a wheel bearing, because it FEELS like you're running over something.

2. definitely not a CV joint because the problem seemed to subside when the tires were rotated.



Check your tires for busted belts. Just look and run your hand around your tire and feel for any lumps along the tread. Depending on how bad its bulging, that could also be causing the rubbing you mentioned, if said rubbing is rhythmic and not constant. And honestly, unless you're specifically looking for them or happen to put your hand on one, busted belts are very easy to overlookHaving some rubbing sometimes when stopping. had brakes,shocks,all joints checked all good.?Your wheels sound really off balance. Go to a different place and have them re balanced and see if that helps. I suppose it could be a wheel bearing but those make a humming noise when they go out and your car is too new to have that issue.Having some rubbing sometimes when stopping. had brakes,shocks,all joints checked all good.?well its hard to beleave but thare other things to a auto than just tires thare a re things such as tie rod ends uper and lower bail jouints along with wheel barrings and races if you are hearing pinecouns i think you may have a bad wheel barring and race that needs some atensiong and should be replaces and it could be quite possable that your cv joints are not in good condistion and the boots are riped and got dirt into the gress and need replaced but its up to you might like to have a mech look at it for you and talk with him about what is going on with your car and then let him fix your pinecouns problem
