Squeaking brakes

[Jayhawkeye]

Has anyone else experienced squeaking brakes typical of an ICE vehicle when they actually hit the brakes? We don’t use them often (sometimes I forget I have the brake pedal lol), but recently if we do, they are very loud and squeaky.

Any advice on how to fix?

Living in Northern Arizona they use cinders on the roads in the winter time. The cinders sometimes get in the disk brakes and also dirt from the forest roads all of which results in load noises on occasion. A trip through the car wash has always solved it for me.

My brakes make the same slight squeal as my Land Rover brakes. It's normal on good brakes. Porsche made a video because they were tired of people complaining.

If you're on the wear indicators then you need new pads and possibly rotors.

Weird indeed! I wash my car every week so it’s definitely not dust.

Use them a bit more, squeaking will go away.
