Squeaking noise when braking on 2012 Ford Focus

Asked by Victor Jun 23, 2022 at 02:45 PM about the 2012 Ford Focus

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

When we stop the 2012 Ford Focus makes a squeaking noise.
The front brake pads are good - plenty of pad left.
Could it be the rear brakes? Or something else?

The pads may look ok but they may be glazed or just cheap pads. I'd replace them and have the rotors resurfaced, if they're not that old. Hope that helps! Jim
