Summary
Pitstop: high-pitched squeal noise before coming to a complete stop - on some vehicles, customers may complain of an intermittent squeal when coming to a stop. This concern is often due to the brake pads not freely floating within the caliper and sticking to the caliper bracket. This condition may lead to a vibration and noise which is heard during the last portion of brake pedal travel, before coming to a complete stop.
