Please Help with squealing brakes!!!
I am at my wits end with this issue.I have a 2013 f150 King Ranch 4x4 ecoboost.Ok so last month I had all new O.E rotors and pads installed.. 3 days later the rear pads started squealing really bad so I took it back and they greased the slides and sprayed some blue stuff on the backsides of pads.The squeal stopped for 3 days then returned so took it back again and they put another set of pads on and again same problem after 3 days.Took it back again and had the cheapest pads money could buy put on.No squeal for 2 weeks and now it's back.Anybody else have/had this issue and what's the fix?..Thanks

Try greasing the clips that the pads sit in.

When does it squeal? Most have said, early in the mornings while backing initially, the brakes will squeal, but go away.
SO are you saying the make noise all of the time?

It is my understanding and experience that the cause of brake squeal is from the pads vibrating in the calipers. If you notice the squealing will stop if you use more force on the brake pedal when you back up. Most people use light pedal pressure when backing allowing the pads to move in the caliper. What I have found is that the "blue" stuff they spray on the back of the pads usually does not last. They make and actual pad to place on the back of the pads or a anti squeal gel that can be used.
I find the pads work the best.

Brakes
They squeal first thing in the morning and also anytime I park and let it sit for about 10 minutes or so.
