Have to agree, it does sound like you have cheap pads. Branded pads shouldn't do this after 2000 miles.Car squeaks when brake applied help! ?
Brakes are not meant to squeek, but if you put the wrong materials together they most certainly will. Semi-metalic pads are hard and if mated to a rotor that does not have a non-directional finish they will squeek. A softer organic pad can be used and this will stop the squeek. If you continue with the matalic pads, center cut a relief in the pads and bevel the leading and trailing edges of the pads. Use a scar wheel on the rotors to roughen them up a bit, this will help the pads to seat into position and lube all of the slide surfaces where the pads contact the carrier.

there's a product from %26quot;permatex%26quot; corp that's called %26quot;disc-brake quiet%26quot; a spraycan that contains a blue chemical, which is sprayed onto the inside of the brake pads, PRIOR to installation. If this simple procedure is not done prior to installation, then some brake squeal will be noticeable. Something to inquire about next time, or else you'll have to pay someone to remove and re-install the brake pads. Just another example of %26quot; if you want a job done right, do it yourself%26quot;Car squeaks when brake applied help! ?
It could be your rotors. The squeaking you hear starts when the little metal piece inside of the brakes starts to hit the rotors. Thus giving you a warning that you need to change your brakes. If you weren't paying attention and it's been squeaking for a long time, then you will probably have damaged your rotors. Get them checked out.Car squeaks when brake applied help! ?
