squeaking noise coming from rear passenger side
hello all been kinda in a pickle
here's some of my symptoms
-rear squealing and squeak coming from the rear passenger side its all-stock back there don't notice much till I go over 30 and don't hear much above 70 isn't always that loud just occasionally it'll be somewhat loud but it enough to drive me crazy lol
-On the same side the car feel like the breaks are dragging but I had that caliper replaced doesn't always do it but every so often it'll feel like it is or you can smell and feel the heat on that side and heat is worse on that side and the rear driver isn't hot at all.
has anyone experienced this or know what this could be before I go to the mechanic?

Welcome to the forums! 
They may be unrelated, but... first things first: Even though you replaced the rear brake caliper that doesn't mean the brakes are ok. They should be (re)inspected to ensure the right rear caliper isn't frozen by lubeless/broken caliper pins or the piston isn't frozen in the bore or some other malady that might be the reason. New does not automatically equal good. New means new and that's all, and it also has to be installed which may be the reason as well.
The squeak may be that too, but it may be that it's the right rear lower control arm bushing is done. Sounds like mine when it was worn out. Replaced the control arm, and that was that.
Hope that helps, and remember, this is a guess from waaaay over here at my computer, but that's what I think anyway. Good luck!

^^^ I certainly would check the brakes as well before anything else.
Either that, or with "squeals and squeaks" you have mice. They don't like speeds over 30 mph and they hunker down at speeds over 70.
