when driving a noise comes from the wheel but it is not the brakes what else causes a grinding sound

Asked by Denise Dec 15, 2016 at 10:03 PM about the 2008 Chrysler Sebring Touring Sedan FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Wheel bearing, CV joint (the axle), you would hear it when moving, not just braking. If you hear it only when braking it's either the brakes or possibly the ABS, if it sounds more like a scraping there is a backing plate that can get bent into the rotor and scrapes.
