If a nation values anything more than freedom, it will lose its freedom;
and the irony of it is that if it is a comfort or money it values more,
it will lose it too.

Squeaking disc brakes are sort of a fact of life. A lot of them do this.
While it can be annoying, it doesn't affect how the brakes work. Your
Chrysler repair guys will probably tell you this unless: 1. There is some
sort of technical service bulletin on this due to customer complaints, etc.
or 2. They can somehow get away with repairing it and charging the repair
back to Chrysler. More than likely, you'll get the "it's normal"
explanation. Try anyway as the car is still under warranty.
Now "grinding" brake noises are something else. Our '96 Town and Country
goes through front brake pads about every 35,000 miles (56,300 kilometers).
If your car has been used in an area with more slope than normal, it may be
due at 44,000KM. Squeaking can be annoying, but grinding is definitely bad.
Best,
Ken

My understanding is that squealing comes from dust.

NO, they are considered "wear items".
12 months/12,000 miles which ever comes first.

The newer pads squeek alot. If you USE your brakes alittle harder, it
MAY go away. I don't mean to wait until the last second before you
slam on your brakes. A firmer push on the pedal can do this.
My sister in law was having this same problem on her Durango. I was
with her when she talked to the service manager (I am a mechanic and
he is someone I know and trust)and he told her to do that.(I know that
'Service Manager' and the words 'know and trust' are USUALLY an
oxymoron but in this case it is not
I have never had this problem
with my vehicles , but I do drive my vehicles kind of hard. I do NOT
abuse them, but they get used. When we left the dealership, she drove
and it did the same thing. She only lives a few miles from the
dealership so it did not solve it ( THAT DAY). The next day she said
it started to quiet down and now it no longer does it. It worked for
her. I am not saying it will work for everyone but GOOD LUCK. I have
had it work for others to solve thier problems, BUT it is not fool
proof.
Apparantly when you use the brakes alittle harder , it breaks a
glaze off of the pads/rotors and helps them to seat properly all the
time. Hey, there is even a TSB on this. I will try to find it and
post it.
