Answers:
do get them checked they could be gone but also these brakes have a tendency to squeek when in perfect condition just the materials there made from..had lots of problems with this as i was a renault mechanic there is no cure.power hosing them can help,but definetly get them checked as they would be worn at that mileage
could be dirt or something caught on the rotor
They shouldnt be. They may just need some cleaning. Take it to a shop for them to clean it.
If the brakes are squealing you probly just need new brake pads. That noise is a warning squeeker
hope not unless u drive like a nut. have them checked. almost any shop will do it for free.
I don't know! How rough are you on the brakes? Some folks get 30,000 miles while others get 5,000! Pull the drums and rotors and look to see where you stand!
It's certainly possible, depending on how you drive. Take it in to have someone look at them, it shouldn't cost you very much at all. If you find the right chain store it might be free.
new brakes make noise..sounds like a squeal. If you're worried about your brakes then have them checked out to make sure they're still in place and not worn down. Sometimes mechanics put on cheap brake pads if they think you have the money to come back to them often. Check them out to be sure..
get um seen 2 straight away,my friends brakes were squeeling 4 about 2 weeks,we were going down a hill when the brakes went luckily she thought fast and whipped up the handbrake so we swerved an hit a wall and not somebody else no1 injured thank god
The noise coming from the brakes may differ and some of it is actually a warning that yes the brakes have reached replacing stages. I f however you live in or drive through a dry dusty areas the it could be dust, how to find out is simple really , if the brakes squeal when you press the pedal it is dust if they squeal continuously then they need replacing, before you take it to a garage try one Of the available Brake cleaning sprays,
check your brake pads, it's not a matter of time/miles but rather your driving habits.
take them off.. bang any crap out of them spray wd40 around everything by the brakes and the disks and the pad s and the job should be done if its only done 21000
