Sounds like a wheel bearing going out. Pull the wheel off and do a visual on the brake pads and check the hub for excessive play.

so today it didnt do it when i took it to the stealership of course. took the mechanic who is working on it for a drive and it finally started again. he thought it might be the vacuum lines that lock the hubs, by then it was 5 so hes going to check it out tomorrow
