My rear passenger side tire just started screeching. It goes away after I drive for a while, and I've noticed that when I gas the engine the sound of the screech either disappears or lowers during the duration (once I release the gas the sound comes back). Even if I drive a while and the sound eventually goes away, if I'm not driving for a while (lets say I sleep during the night) it always comes back when I get back to it (in the morning).

Any ideas what it could be?

I thought it was my Ebrake cause i drove 100 feet with it on and thats when i started hearing the noise. But I put it down, put it back up, and it didn't affect the sound at all. But it could still be a possibility.

When was the last time you had the brake pucks changed? Could be the worn brake sensor?

I'm not sure, I just bought this car used. I'll probably take it in, I just want to get a good idea what it is before I do. I might even remove the wheel to see if theirs a rock stuck in the rotor or not first.

Could be a wheel bearing maybe? Jack up that corner and place one hand on top of the tire and one below, try to rock the wheel/tire and see if you have any play.

So if I rock the wheel and it doesn't move it's a bearing issue?

If you rock the wheel and it DOES move it could be a bearing issue. At that point you would want to investigate further and see if you can pinpoint the movement.
