I had a similar chirp that turned out to be front brakes...new rotors fixed it.  $250-350 depending on whether your tech lets you supply the rotors or he supplies the rotors.

The chirping sound goes away with a slight turn of the wheel to the right,
but once I veer onto the shoulder I have to aim left again.

The chirping sound is a symptom of.....? And how much would that cost to
fix?
