Your wheel bearings are at the least out of adjustment. Check 'em and set them right. As your brakes warm up, they will try to grab when you turn certain directions.

Someone already said it, get the front end up in the air with the wheels still on tight. Use that and see if you can get any movement grabbing from the top and bottom of the wheels. If none of that works, light the car on fire and go buy a Honda. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
