Default 2002 Cruiser Noise Front Wheel?

My Cruiser has begun to make a noise which sounds like the left front which is noticed when braking or slowing down. I had the brakes checked & said to be fine. Does not sound metal to metal like worn out pads but like something squeaking or rubbing. Anyone have ideas what to check?

Just talking about noise from the front end on another thread. Turned out to be a bad wheel bearing on one side.

I noticed that the noise comes when making a right hand turn while braking.

When making a right turn, the weight of the car is shifted to the left side so have the bearings checked on the left. Then replace both sides if one is bad.
