Another side note, I noticed my mileage went down a couple weeks ago, which definitely wasn't normal! At the same time the car somewhat pulled to the right once one my hands were off the wheel. I took it for an alignment twice and they said my tires were bad, didn't sound right to me. I took the wheels off and found the rotor had difficulty rotating, turned out it was some sticky brakes! After that was fixed the car didn't pull to the right and my mileage went back to the 30s on the highway lol

In the caliper there was a lot of grime, so even popping the brakes out proved to be pain. I cleaned it all and after applying the grease / silicone to the caliper, pins, and brake shims it all seemed great after. It also took care of this vibration in the steering wheel.
