Brake squealing is commonly caused by worn brake pads. The metal part of the pad makes contact with the rotor, causing the noise.

I had new brakes rotors and calipers and the brakes are squeling now.The garage said my brakes where to hard and they had metal in them they sanded them.Still squeling What could be the cause.?

first of all, the pads may be semi-metallic and have chunks of metal in them which may cause the squeal, change to a less metallic pad may help, also the backing of the pads should have an anti-squeal gel applied to them, when you apply the brakes, the pads will hyper vibrate and can cause a squeal. The gel will stop the vibrating. first of all, the pads may be semi-metallic and have chunks of metal in them which may cause the squeal, change to a less metallic pad may help, also the backing of the pads should have an anti-squeal gel applied to them, when you apply the brakes, the pads will hyper vibrate and can cause a squeal.

If one of your tires blows out you should apply your brakes immediately.?

If one of your tires blows out, you should avoid applying your brakes immediately, as this can cause loss of control. Instead, maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel, gradually ease off the accelerator, and steer straight to slow down. Once you have reduced your speed, signal and carefully maneuver to a safe area to stop. Only then should you apply the brakes gently to bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
