why does my car makes a squeaking sound when press on brakes

Well, brakes will squeak for many reasons. First, the brakes could be getting worn out. Metal components may be touching metal components causing noise. Second, rear brakes may be "drum" style brakes. Drum brakes have shoes inside big brake drums and brake dust can collect inside causing some squeaking noises. Third, brake pad movement can cause noise. If the brakes are not firmly installed in the brake calipers with proper anti-rattle clips and lubrication of slides, the pads may vibrate and resonate squeaking noise. Fourth, there could be a "lip" or an edge on the brake rotors that requires resurfacing when installing new brake pads. There are other reasons, but those are the main ones. A hands on inspection will be able to determine what is going on, and some effort can be made to resolve the noise. https://repairpal.com/auto-repair-near-me Click the link or call us at 877-913-1554.
