    I took my truck in to the dealership a month ago for new front brake pads and rear adjustment, a couple days ago i noticed my breaks were squeaking again, should they be doing this?? I don't think it happened to me before on another vehicle.... :confused:

    I live down a dirt road so anytime the road is muddy, they always squeak until the dirt is gone. Even dust can make them squeak a little. Now if they squeak the entire time you are pressing them, then the pads are gone and the indicators are telling you that.
