2009 Kia Sportage has a high pitched sound (like metal rubbing as the wheel turns) coming from the front end of the vehicle. There are only 19,900 mile on the vehicle. It is serviced as it should be. The break pad and rotors look like new. When I took the tire off on the front passenger side, the wheel would turn with the vehicle in park. The passenger side would not. I took it out of park and the passenger side would turn but with more effort than I would have expected. I do not see any grease points anywhere. Any thoughts or suggestions. Please and thank you.

It is probably the sharp edges on the pads that is causing the squealing, file a chamfer all round both pads and it should stop. This problem could be caused also by a glazing on the face of the pads youy could clean this off too. Check for any play in the wheel bearings (jack up car and rock wheel top/bottom and feel for play) this is unlikely with such a low mileage.
