Get a pair of jack stands if you don't already have some so you can safely stick your head in there.
jack the car and remove the wheel. Does the caliper look crooked? Do both of the rubber boots over the guide pins look evenly opened? Are the pads wearing evenly?

Check that your caliper isn't sticking. If the slides have not been cleaned up in a while the cold can make them stick.

Back in the day ...... it would either have been a brake shoe dragging or a bad wheel bearing or a wheel adjusted down too tight against the bearing.
But on your car, today ....it ....it ...... what were we talking about ...... ?? humfrz |

But shouldn't really happen on a car this new because it is usually due to corrosion in the piston.

Assuming the boots over the pots are healthy, the best place for them to do their thing is when they're fully retracted. The more they are extended, the more they can get cocked sideways & jam. It's cheap insurance.

I had a similar problem with mine at around 60,000kms. It was intermittent, and I did not want to deal with the dealer/tech not being able to find the issue because it would only happen some of the time. I bit the bullet and paid for a right front caliper out of pocket, and installed it myself. That fixed the problem. IIRC, a loaded caliper/bracket was around $300CDN from Scion.
To test the theory, have a spray bottle handy with some water in it. Go for a drive (higher than in town speeds would be better) for say 5-10 minutes, pull the car over, and spray each rotor with a bit of water. A little "psss" from the heat of just stopping may be normal, but if that right front steams and hisses noticeably more than the others, I'd say a sticky caliper is a pretty safe bet.

After a good drive where you use the brakes some (not all highway) feel the front wheels. Does the sticky side wheel feel hotter than the other side?
