Re: squealing sound
One common issue that results in a squealing sound coming from the wheel is from the brake pad's wear indicator, which is a thin aluminum tab connected to your brake pads. The wear indicator is designed to rub against the brake rotors when the pad wears down causing the annoying squeal. Also, the fact you said it comes and goes also points to the pads as the culprit. Replace the pads and the rotors, or resurface them.
