I picked up my car about two weeks. The only thing I can complain about is: when breaking, I hear the brakes squeling. Has any body heard their brakes squeal? Is it just a break in issue? Car has 1500 miles on it.

Mine do, I believe it is because of the compound of the brake pad materials. They are prone to this, the solution is to drive it harder.

that's what I thought. I dont really feel like bringing it to the dealership. I would say were not a great terms right now.

yeah I'd stand on them a few times over the next few days. See if they begin to fade or if the noise gets worse. Then make a call as to whether you need to take it in.

I think i agree. Unless it's like a squeal (like he is saying), then I think there is a problem, shouldn
t be screaming..

my2010camaross · 08-21-2009, 09:52 PM

It is not screaming, know that for sure. It is not every brake either just sometimes. Kinda if you ran through some water and your brakes squeal. That is what it reminds me of. Have not ran through any water. By the way zaino, the whole process, is pretty nice.

If you can reproduce the noise somewhat easily, I'd take it in for sure and take a tech for a ride.

my2010camaross · 08-24-2009, 03:41 AM

Well, I will be changing the oil the first time at the dealer. Most likley this week, I'll take a tech for a drive then.

Hey, brakes squeal too. Just over a 1000 miles on it. The squeal comes and goes. Guess I better let the dealer check mine too.

my2010camaross · 08-25-2009, 01:36 AM

Yeah, it does come and go. I did notice if you step on the brake hard it does not squeal.

Carr2010SS · 09-01-2009, 07:49 PM

Mine are squealing. I am at about 700 miles. It seems to be when I am in stop and go traffic, they are squealing when coming to a complete stop.
