    The squeal you are getting is likely caused by the backing of the new brake pads. It is actually caused by the pad moving against the caliper. Some shops use a spray, or adhesive pad to prevent this. It may go away as the pads seat themselves in. If it continues for more than a few days, go back to the shop that installed them and let them know.
