New Brakes Squealing
Hi,
Recently had my stock pads and rotors replaced with StopTech slotted rotors and Hawk HPS pads. Brakes have squealed ever since. Installer assures me brakes were properly bedded, and suggested brake dust was the problem. I disagree as I have washed the vehicle thoroughly but the noise remains. My stock pads made no noise; now my wife can hear me coming from down the street as the brakes squeal at every stop sign. Any ideas as to how to correct this noise problem?
Thanks in advance,
Robert
