At light to medium application of my brakes it seems like one of my rear brakes emits a squealing sound. Anyone else experience this? What causes it and is there any fix? Will dealership put new pads on?
Truck has 7400 miles.
Going in for TSB 00-25-8 (clunk fix) next week and I'm going to ask them at that time.
Thanks,
Ryan

Though people are having better luck with aftermarket pads...

 

2K,
I put the Perf. Friction, bought at AutoZone, on mine. I also coated the area on the pads front & rear where caliper (piston?) touches with the 'NoSqueal' goo. Every now and then it will squeal--but not at the same pedal pressure as before (ie. normal stop&go traffic) and nowhere near as bad.
I never did ask Ford place about fixing or exchanging. I HATE to leave it there if I can do anything about it myself! I first tried lightly sanding Ford pads to get rid of glazing, that lasted for about 10 min.

I wonder if anyone has tried the Raybestos "QuietStop" or something like that.I don't know about the performance aspects of that pad though--anybody know about these???
