Why do my brakes squeak when I release the brake pedal?
Squeaking when you lift your foot off the brake is an indication that the calipers are not releasing. For disc brakes, the calipers hold the brake pads. They close when you step on the brake pedal. If they get rusty, they won’t release cleanly.
When I release the brake I hear a noise?
Some brakes have a built in metal stripe which makes a noise to indicate worn-off brake pads. This should be a metallic screeching sound. Bad brake cylinders or leakage in the lines can cause the brake-pad to not entirely re-set after braking, so the pad keeps contact to the disc. This makes more of a grinding sound.
Why do my brakes whistle when released?
When the brakes are applied, the warning noise goes away because the indicator has now been forced against the brake rotor and is not able to vibrate, causing this whistling noise. Brake squeal is caused by vibration between the brake pads, rotors, and calipers.

Why does my car squeal when I put my foot on the pedal?
Your brakes can squeal when they are not applied. Usually, this is because the brake-pad-wear indicator is touching the rotor. If the wear indicator is touching the rotor, sometimes the noise disappears when you apply the brakes and returns when your foot comes off the pedal.
What should I do if I hear a thumping noise on my brakes?
Do this three to five times, while keeping a steady speed; the noise should disappear, or at least be 90% gone. Then drive the car at normal speeds and use the brakes the way you normally would. If the noise has not changed, you may have a different thumping noise than what I have described here in this article.
