Why Your Brakes are Making that Squealing Noise
Amid the cacophony of a running car, it can be difficult to tell what sound is coming from where and whether it's a problem. However, the squealing sound from the brakes is very distinct. Here's what it could mean:
If you hear squeaks once in a while when braking lightly, this is typical and is nothing to cause concern.
If you occasionally hear squeaks when braking for a long distance before coming to a stop, this is also considered normal. High relative humidity can also cause this noise.
However, if you frequently hear a high-pitched screeching when applying the brakes, your brake pads need to be replaced.
