Best Answer

Disc brakes do not have springs to retract the pads form the rotors, therefore they are millimeters from touching and even dust can make them hiss. However if they screech when applying, this is usually the wear indicator rubbing against the rotor warning you to replace the pads.

What causes a Saturn Vue to make clunking noises when you brake?

This happened to our 2003 Vue. I had just had the brakes replaced and they had not done this properly, something to do with the 'calipers', so the car sounded like a bucket of bolts everytime I put on the brakes. Have them look at the rear brakes especially if you've just had them replaced.
