squeaking from driver while driving

When I pick up speed it gets louder. It doesn't matter if I'm on the gas or not. Happens here and there. If its making the noise, and I tap the break it temporarily stops. And the noise just started like a few days ago. Each day its louder. But the breaks also don't feel as tight as they used to be. Kinda sucks because my fan is going out too. And its getting 90 during the day.
