Default Screeching sound from front right

It started on my 02' LS430 UL when turning right into corners today and then when driving straight at low speeds. At 1st thought it was a small asphault rock stuck between the pad and rotor as they are redoing the road outside our house. When parking back in the garage I push down on the right corner panel and it even squeeks then . I have just over 20K miles on it, I wouldn't expect the air suspension to go out already.

Any ideas what this might be and if it would be covered under Lexus warranty?

Do I dare drive it to the Lexus service center 20 minutes away?

With only 20,000 miles, call Lexus and schedule to take it in. If your real concerned, check with them to tow it in for you. But with air suspension, I wouldn't hesitate to dealer the car.

If your still under warrenty, call Lexus road side assistance, and have them tow your LS to the nearest dealership. You'll be in a '06 RX loaner in no time.
