The brakes on this vehicle have squealed since the first few months after I bought the car. I had learned to live with it. I keep my windows up and radio on so I can't hear them squeal. Lately, though, they have become louder and more constant. I haven't gone to the dealer with a new complaint, because they assured the last 2 times I complained that there was nothing wrong and "that's just Hyundai brakes. They'll stop you, but they are loud!" whatever, surely there is something that can be done. I have friends with other types of Hyundai's and their brakes don't do this.
