They are about a year old i think.....had them checked and was told they were fine but who knows unless you check yourself......I dont think it would be a bent axle cause it seems to be coming from up front but ill keep that in mind in case.

brake squeal comes from vibration between the chatter plate and brake pad. Just apply some white lithium grease or caliper grease to the sides of the brake pad and put back on. don't get grease on the pad surface though!
