Brakes Squeak While Braking in Reverse Only

Recommended Posts

This started after having all brakes replaced by STS (first mistake, I know)

I have a 2008 Ford Edge SEL AWD

Just under 151,000 miles.

 

When in reverse only, when I apply the brakes, they squeak something horrible.

The pads are fine.

This isn't just a "now and then" occurrence.

It's every time I back out of a parking spot or parallel park.

Any reason why this is happening?

What should I look for?

Easy fixes?

 

All help appreciated.

That's a strange one. See if the calipers or pads are loose. You could try doing a few hard stops in reverse.

You could try this out. Low frequency damper can be added to the 08 edge with a new pin kit and the dampers. Your noise will and should disappear.
