Galant 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 12,000 miles
I have developed a consistent squealing of my front brakes with only 12,500 miles on my 2004 Galant ls. I recently took my car back to dealer for scheduled maintenance and reported this to dealer. Dealer said they could not recreate this problem. When bringing the tsb's for this vehicle and complaints similar to this problem, advisor said to bring it back and he would investigate it further. When pulling out of dealership, the squealing began immediately. What is up with this inattention to what could be a potentially serious problem? I am tired of dealers trying to pass the blame on the materials being used in place of asbestos.
