07 Front Brake Sticking

So am driving around last night when I come upon a stop sign, when I here a grinding noise from the front of the car. I drive very slow and still hear it. Once I get up to about 30 it goes away. I stop again and then creep along and it is still making noise. I put in in reverse and it quits, put it back in drive and it has stopped making noise completely. What could be causing this? I plan on going to the dealer on Monday. Has any one else had this problem.

Keep us informed what the dealers says. How many miles on your new 07? Did you check your brake fluid, see if you have it topped up all the way?

Took Zoey in today apparently a small stone got wedged up between the dust shield all is now good. Apparently no harm was done.
