bad alignment and bumpy sharp turns
I noticed that whenever i take a sharp "u" turn, in either direction, the car makes a sort of crunch and bumps until the wheel is straightened out.
The pad or rotor on the drivers side is needing to be replaced because i noticed the rotor is warped and when i come to a stop i hear a screeching sound only from the left brake.
While i had the tire off the rotor and caliper had a lot of play on the driver side and basically none on the passenger.
Is this a wheel bearing causing the bumpyness? The CV joints are not torn so i believe they are still good.
The car turns to the right when i take my hand off the wheel.
Please help!

vehicle info?
As for brakes sounds like caliper, rotor and pad time prob both sides. and by pulling to the right that brake is prob dragging
Bumpyness - bad bearing will cause it a little, jack up the front end support it on stands and on both sides grab the tire top and bottom and both sides and feel for movement.
But it sounds more like your front diff is ingauged putting the outer cv joints in a bind

It doesn't sound like a wheel hub problem with my limited knowledge on that subject. It does sound more like a 'caliper, rotor and/or pads' problem. Also you may want to get the suspension parts such as tie rods, idler arm, checked out.
If you would put your vehicle info in your signature, you would get more helpful responses to your inquiries. Just list all vehicle info plus mileage and even your location. Location is a factor in the answer because of the part extreme cold, heat, road salt and other environmental elements. You don't have to put a specific address like 1234 Main St.,Buffalo, just Upstate NY,for example, would be helpful.
