Brakes are squeeling

Hey guys


I've started to hear my brakes start to squeel a bit (Non Brembo). Car has about 1500
miles on it. Should I worry about it? Or is that what happens when its still new?

Mine sometimes squeak, usually after it rains.

Mine (front right) have been squeaking for two months. Does it when coming to a complete stop at low speeds, usually stop & go traffic.

Been to the dealer twice, but they "couldn't reproduce the issue."

With 2500 miles on my car, I'm hoping that it goes away soon. It's annoying/embarrassing as all hell.

It's likely this will go away with a good bedding in of the brakes...

Can this be done after about 2k miles. Mine are squeaking too in stop and go traffic and it is seriously embarrassing to have a one month old car that is already making noise.

My Brembo car does this but it seems to come from the rear...so same brakes that all GTs have back there. Its not too loud at 1700 miles but it is annoying.

Mine still squeak. I have 4,000 miles on it now, and the squeak started around 1,000. It happens on harder stops (not too hard by any means, but not the very slow stops), which is about 1 in 3 or 4. I keep hoping it goes away...

So yea now I just noticed my car is squeeling when I do slow acceleration from a stop, and if I put the car in neutral and just let it coast at low speed it squeels the entire time. Sounds like change rattling around.

Mine sometimes squeels very faintly from the front left brake when slowing to a stop below 5mph.
