Has there ever been a found fix for V6 brake squeal?

I've read alot of posts on here going back to like 2011 about the v6 brake squeal, our 2011 has 38k miles and the fronts have been squealing since about 15k miles only when cold. It goes away in 2/3 stops so taking to the dealer wouldn't work. My wife keeps telling me to do the brakes and I keep trying to explain to her I don't think that will fix it. I'm at the point now where i'm tired of being embarrassed in the parking garage at work, when I pull out its so loud and embarrassing. I've had 4 idiots tell me "Hey, you need to get your brakes done". Like I'm some asshat who doesn't take care of his cars.

I can't say my breaks every made noise when they were stock. Even now with Hawk HPS pads I don't get any noise

Hello TexasFright,

Sorry you to have to deal with this issue, I understand your frustration. I am curious as to have you had the opportunity to take your vehicle in for diagnosis? Also, could you private message me your VIN and actual mileage so that I may look into your situation further? Thank you in advance.
