2004 GMC seems like brakes engage when turning Sign In

My 2004 GMC Canyon pickup seems like the brakes engage when I'm turning sharply, especially to pull into or out of a parking space. Tires sometimes squeel when I have to excellerate through the turn to get past the braking problem. Is this a master cylindar problem or a power steering problem? How much trouble am I looking at for repairs?

I suspect someone has done brake work to it recently.
Pull off the front wheels and look at the rubber flex hoses and see if they have a loop in them. If someone had the caliper off and rotated it a turn before putting it back on, it will kink the hose when turning.
