Hi, I have a 92 Toyota Corolla, and the left front wheel sticks and scrapes when I rotate it. First of all, I?m wondering what might cause this, and secondly how serious is it? It?s had new calipers, rotor, pads, the works. It?s also had a new drive axel assembly. All on that side. That was about 4 years ago. Today, I took it to the garage that did that work, and the mechanic drove it around the block, didn?t hear anything and said there was nothing wrong, while handing me a bill for $80. Something with that much scraping and friction can?t be good. At the least it will lower my gas mileage. But I think it?s getting worse, and the wheel may freeze up on me during a 600 mile trip I?m planning next week. Please help. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.cartalk.com/t/wheel-scrapes-and-drags-when-turned/17230)._
