I don't get a shimmy in the steering wheel, the sound stays the same while turning. I priced rotors, pads, etc. I might as well pay the $100.00 deductible and let the extended warranty take care of it. It's defiantly a rub. There is no grinding or anything.
2010 Silverado ECSB LS 4x4. Only mods so far are a K&N drop in filter and a Rough Country 2" front level kit
Take off your wheel and caliper and check the thickness of the pad. You caliper slides may be locked up, causing your pad to rub on the rotor. If your pads are fine, take the rotor off and take it up to O'Reillys and spend the $7 to have them machine it flat. If that doesn't solve your problem, then it has to be the bearings. Make sure to get races for the bearings too. If you do the pass side, might as well to the driver's side...

also could be the wheel is not seated right on the hub. If the noise is while braking than no doubt use the warranty.

Yeah, I think I'll pay the $100 deductible and let the dealership take care of it.
sounds like a good idea. when i use to work at an auto shop, we would have that complaint and the problem was from rust on the rotor. it was built up on the lip of the rotor and would lightly rub on the pads.
So it was time to buy new tires. Had Goodyear 235/75/16. Now have Remington Wide Brute 265/70/16. My power steering whine is gone, my alignment is straight, and the rubbing noise is gone. Those old tires must have been SH*T! LOL
