no they are fine. You are quite safe to leave it for the time being. But as soon as you start careering over the edge of the cliff to your certain death, merrily but pointlessly stamping on that middle pedal, it is probably the time to go to Kwik Fit.

How do you grease the ball joints on a 2000 Ford Mustang?

Not necessarily. If it happens first thing in the morning, it may be "dew" that needs to get burnt off. If you have rear drum brakes, it could be corrosion. It requires removal of the drum, and a simple rasping(filing). Otherwise the most likely culprit is the wear indicator on the brake pads. It is a little piece of metal the starts to rub on the brake rotor when the brake pad gets thin. It gets your attention, and that is whats it's for. The pads will require replacement.

One idea, is when you go get your oil change, combine it with a tire rotation, and say to the service manager, while the wheels are off, could you look at that squeak. You'll save some money, cause they will probably look at it at no extra charge.

If they are disc brakes and in good condition they might need copper grease put on the backs of the brake pads. There should be special clips on them to stop squeaks but the grease is excellent.
