guys, when i reverse, it sounds like a high pitch squeeling noise coming from the front left wheel. doesnt seem to make noise when i am in drive, only reverse. do i have a bad bearing or something? could it have something to do with my brakes?

cause i've changed plenty of brakes for hondas. In my write-up usually has "customer states front brake squeels when reversing." At the end of the job, I replaced the rear pads, and sometime turn the rear rotors. ;)

The rear brake pads inside pads have a metal sensor. When worn down to 10-15% the metal hits the rotor while reversing which causes the squeel. It only does it when you reverse out of the driveway. It gets worse and worse as pad wears down and eventually becomes squeeling all the time if owner does not replace.
