Loud screeching noise when moving
I have a 2012 F150 with approx 68k miles. When I let off the brake and start rolling forward, there is a very loud screeching noise coming from what sounds like the rear of the truck. I just replaced the brakes in the rear a few weeks ago. It’s not a daily driver, so I was thinking rust build up, but this is extremely loud and doesn’t go away if I drive it a few days in a row. Any input? Thanks!

Check the backing plate to make sure a stuck rock or the plate itself isn't scrubbing the rotor.

II checked the best I could under there and couldn’t see anything. The rotor doesn’t appear to have any gouges in it either, which I would think a rock would cause. The sound gets quieter the more I drive it, but as soon as it sits for even just a couple hours it is right back to being extremely loud. I did have issues getting the tire off when I replaced the brakes a few weeks ago, they were stuck on. Could this be causing the noise as well?

Anything's possible with an earth bound machine lol. Have a pro take a look is my best advice.
