WD-40 but check your breaks before driving though
*********************
You do not say what part of your breaks are squeaking. WD-40 is fine for the moving parts on the break assemble, but not on the block which makes contact with the rim of the wheel. If it is the break block, then it is caused by friction between the block and the rim. The blocks may be worn, if so replace both blocks.
It could also be that your break assembly is loose. I am assuming this is for a bicycle. If a motor vehicle then it may be that dust has accumulated inside the breaking assembly. The rim may also need re boring to allow the break block to make a better contact.

When I drive my 1994 Toyota Camry I hear a squeaking noise in the left wheel and when I push the brake what could be the problem?
If there is a squeaky noise coming from any of your wheels and from pressing on the brakes, then I am supposing that there is something wrong with your brakes. From my past experiences with squeaky noises coming from my wheels, I got it checked out by a mechanic and he said that my brakes were worn out to the point where I was going to lose brake control in the wheels that were squeaking. I would suggest you get your squeaky wheel and brakes checked out by a mechanic. You might have to only change the brakes if its not too serious. I wish you the best of luck!
Why do you get this squeaking sound each time you push the brakes'What causes this?
Vibrations that come through the breaks squeaking can cause the irritating squeaking that we have come to know. The high frequency of the vibrations results in the high pitch squeaking. Alternatively, the squeaking can come from the disc that secures the brakes, when the vehicle is coming to a stop.
