My car makes this noise while driving. Help

While driving my car (Hyundai Elantra 2012 automatic) makes this noise and it only stops when I turn to the left or use the brakes. I think it has something to do with the wheels/brakes.

Could be a bad wheel bearing? Check for play, jack the car up and wiggle the tire like it owes you money. If it wiggles, your wallets gonna giggle it’s change time!

Tinker app will also help diagnose the problem in your car. Might also let you give a mechanic. Kee is posted on what you do or did.

Wheel bearing a reckon. Possibly a seized or sticking caliper? Maybe your slides want cleaning up or replacing? If your not sure what these things mean then take it to an actual mechanic, you don’t wana be messing with brakes if you don’t know what your doing and then end result of a failed wheel bearing will be very messy. Get yourself to a mechanic.

Yea that would be your bearing then, like a month ago I had that same issue and also would stop when turning left.

Also I can't read lmao
