Default Brakes driving me crazy!

My brakes have been bothering me for a couple months now. I don't remember exactly when they started to squeal and screech but I took it to a Goodyear soon after. They assured me nothing was wrong and that they were just dusty. Washed them out like crazy and no luck. I've had the rotors replaced before that and I don't know what to do about it. Pads? Any advice would be great

I would replace the pads with good quality ones. You get what you pay for when it comes to brake pads.

Replace rotors and get green pads. That's what I do. Never any issues unless my truck is covered in mud/dirt light squeak here and there but never lingering

What pads are you running? High performance pads will squeal when cold. Also quick, hard stops will glaze your rotors causing the squeal.
