Let them buy them, you should not have to pay for anything...WARRANTY!! Furthermore, they are taking a lot of life away from your rotors buy turning them, I would not let them do that again, obviously that is not the problem.

 

ditto :notnice:

 

I think 36% is a pretty good indication that something is not right!

Now, how do we get the info to Ford so they PROPERLY correct the problem and do a recall?

 

Anybody found a cure?

 

When I took my car in again the service manager said that Ford was aware of the problem and told dealers not toreplace pads as they are working on a fix. No big deal.

As for turning the rotors, I could care less as I will be replacing them anyways.

have 190 miles and notice a little noise when slowing down but stops at other times!!

 

I just bought my first Mustang (I previously stuck with GM) and was noticing squeeking brakes. I was hoping they just needed to be broken in, but it sounds like it's not going to go away. It happens for me when lightly braking.

 

Sqeeking the day I bought the car, last Saturday. The saleslady told me if it persist to let them know and they will take care of it. I noticed too when I gave her a bath Friday afternoon that there is some rust on the rotors of the front brakes. Should I be concerned? No other problems to note.

And Man I Love My MUSTANG!

 

I don't have any squeeking on mine and I have over 6k on her. Hope it doesn't start though.

 

Mine squell a LITTLE bit, and it's sort of random. I think it might just be dust getting in my breaks because after I wash my car it generally stops. It's not a long drawn out squeal either, it just does it when I first put my foot on the break for 1 second then stops.

Like another poster mentioned mine is generally under light breaking only.

 

My squeeking seems to have gone away by itself.

 

I noticed a v6 car I drove the other day had the exact same Squeek! My Gt is Squeeking again also! The only time it seems to go away is after my wife drives it! She drives like she is in Nascar!

mine didnt squeel until they changed my wheels to the bullitts

they have ever since then



in the people that have squeeling brakes, have your wheels been off?

maybe there is something about the rotors warping with incorrect torque, or sequence??


im going to take mine off and put them on the lathe this weekend to see what i come up with

 

I have put 1600 miles on her and no squeeking brakes

 

rears are squeekin' now...just seemed to have started in the las week or so..

 

No squeeks on mine and I have just over 600 miles on it. Hopefully it will stay squeek free.

 

I got tired of waiting for a Brake fix from FORD so I took matters into my own hands today! Now before anybody says Ford should fix this I AGREE. But I am tired of having people check out my car only to be embarrassed by the brake squeel. Ford has released a new Part number for rear pads so I figured maybe thats where the problem was. But sometimes a new part number is because of a price or vendor change. Also Both the v6 and v8 use the same rear pads and I drove a v6 that had the same squeek it seemed the logical place to start. Anyway I removed the rear pads and they looked great so I applied some of this BG Products stop squeel and hoped for the best. After a short drive the squeel was still there so time to do the fronts. The front Pads were smooth in the center but rough around the edges. Sharp as a matter of fact!. So I took a small sanding roll and chamferred all the sharp edges including the slit down the center. I then soaked them with the BG Product and let them set for 20 minutes. After reinstall and a Long test drive the squeek is GONE. But only time will tell if it returns. I will update as mileage accumulates! But for now the Mouse is Gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the post, and please keep us updated on the long-term results. Also, is the center product in the picture the one you soaked the brake pads in?

 

A little over 4k on the clock, no squeaks here, even after a car wash or in the rain.
