Jeep GC 2002 Squeaking breaks
 

My Grand Cherokee has about 43K miles on it. squeaking noise when I apply
the brakes at low speed. I had the brakes relined @ 40K.

Bad break job?
Something else?

Thank you

Could be they didn't put stopsqueek on the pads. However, some pads do
squeek a bit in certain conditions (like heavy dew) till they warm up.

high pitched squeal is caused by pads and growling are caused by rotors.u
might take the pads off and sand the glaze off them to see if that helps and
make sure the spots the pads rest on the caliper mount are clean so the pads
can move off the discs when the pedal is released
