The brakes squeaks and vibrates when coming to a stop due to warped rotors and worn pads. Nlm

There is excessive amounts of brake dust on the front wheels and now the car is squeaking. It seems that all the vehicles I see of this type have the same problem. These brake pads must be defective to wear out so fast. I am concerned about the safety factor due to this matter.

Whenever the brakes are applied they would make squealing & squeaking noise. Took to dealership. Mechanic informed owner hubs were loosened & needed to be tightened. Also, brake rotors were bad. The tires were rotated. Contacted the manufacturer.
