Tire Rubs Brake Line When Turned To Right SC1

I have 2001 Saturn SC1, it has correct size tires 185/65/15's. When you turn the wheel all the way to the right, the left tire rubs against the brake line and the bracket which supports brake line. Does anyone know some way I could correct this problem. I do not have any rubbing on the right side. Is there some adjustment to keep the wheels from turning to far to the right?

You need an alignment, more than likely. Or, the quick fix is to zip-tie the brake line to the strut.

if any brake work was done in the past, its possible the line was rerouted incorrectly. i don't have a picture of the correct way, but if you had the dealership look at it i'm sure they could tell you. or look for your self, maybe you can see if it routed worng.

Chances are the caliper was reinstalled incorrectly the last time front brakes were done twisting the brake line. check with the other side to see if the brake lines are facing the same way. If not, remove the caliper and untwist the brakeline so both Left and right brake lines are facing the same direction
