Question

2007 Pontiac G6. Brakes were squealing so I replaced w/ ceramic pads. About 34000 miles. Now brakes seem to work OK but they make a growling/moaning sound when applied.

Accepted Answer

Thank you for using just answer.

 

The problem is in the rotors.If the brakes were making a squealing sound you should have turned them.Turn the rotors and the noise will go away.Even with the mileage low anytime they make a squealing noise its warping the rotor.So the rotor will be uneven if you dont turn them or the other way arounf the rotor could be warped causing the failure of pads.They warp from overheating,age,braking to hard,and braking alot when wet.
