Squeaky breaks?

Question:
I have a 2000 Ford Mustang. The breaks were squeeky and need to be changed so we had them changed. Now whenever i step on the break it squeeks really high pitched when i get down to slower speeds. It has 4 disk-breaks. And doesn't have ABS. What could be causing this?

if you've hit the brakes hard before they had a chance to wear in, you may have glazed them. this reduces your cars ability to stop. have them checked out. also the wear indicator may have been improberly installed. or you might have a rock or other debris stuck in between the rotor and the pad.

Every other time you get a brake job on your car, have the rotors turned just a little bit. This will get the slick surface off of the rotors. That is your squeaking problem!

More than likely, the people that serviced your brakes didn't propperly prepare the contact surfaces, or use brake pad sound reducer that's applied to the backside of the pads.

How do I change the right rear hub assembly on my 2002 Ford Explorer XLT 4 Wheel drive?

My assumption is that the "el cheapo" brake pads were used, and, depending on the conditions the Mustang goes through, may have worn out already. Another possibility is that there may be something hanging up within the brakes that could be causing the brakes to squeak. Disc brakes are one of the easiest things to fix on a car, and with a book from the library, can be done with ease by any weekend warrior

Pull the pads off. On the back side (non friction side) clean off with brake cleaner and spray each pad. Go to a NAPA store and pick up a plastic squeeze bottle of CRC Brake Quiet material. It's a high temp silicone designed to remove harmonic vibrations (brake squeal). Spread a liberal amount of this high temp silicone material on the back (non brake material side). Let this material dry for half an hour in a warm dry place. Mean while use 100 grit aluminum oxide paper, scuff up each side of your brake rotors. Reassemble and smile as you storm the town.
