Default Yes =) check your right front brakes to see if anything is rubbing the rotor.

other than that, how worn are your front pads? does it sound like it's coming from the brake/wheel area, or is it a plastic scraping sound? is the wheel well liner secured by both plastic bolts that hold the belly pan in place? perhaps one is missing and the plastic is hitting somewhere. if you can't troubleshoot it yourself, I'd get it looked at immediately by your dealer. no use risking damage down there.
