Default brakes

this is what happens,
after moderately high speeds 50-75 my brakes make a noise when i stop. I replaced my brakes 10 months ago and the sounds only are made when i apply them strong. It sounds like the rotor catches and then slips. It makes more of the noise when i turn left so its boggling my mind, both pads and rotor are new and i cant explain it. Its more of a high pitch grinding noise and it pulsates. any help would be great!!

Try taking the pads off and putting anti sieze on the back of the pads and on the bracket that they sit in. What kind of pads and rotors did you use?
