2006 Mitsubishi eclipse 2.4L Brakes making rough noise on sharp right turn Sign In

For a 2006 mitsubishi eclipse 2.4L GS after I make a sharp right turn as I straighten out the wheels and I pump the brakes I hear a deep rough squeak. It sounds like metal rubbing together. The sound continues as I keep driving straight and pump the brakes until eventually it stops on it's own. I just replaced the brake pads on all four wheels like 3 weeks ago what could it be?

Whole host of reasons for this:
1. Just replacing pads and nothing else done.
2. New pads are hitting a rust ring on outer rotor surface.
3. Splash shield could be touching rotor or bent/damaged.
4. Caliper hardware not inspected, replaced or lubed.
5. Improper installation of any parts involved.
6. Twisted flex hose locking pressure to a caliper.
7. Defective flex hose(s) themselves.
8. Retracting pistons such that ABS items have old dirty brake fluid in sensitive components.
!! - Wheel(s) loose!
!!! - Cheap and or defective new parts.

The list could go on forever but IMO those would be most common,
