New Brakes, but still squeeking?

Yep i got some new brakes put in, but after 2 months they are still squeeking. Did they install bad brake pads? I know after getting new brakes there should be no squeeking, also i still feel that i have to press down pretty hard to get a response.

ANy one else have any insight?


THanks

If the brakes were Acura brakes take them back to the dealer, I had the same problem and they forgot to moly coat them.

When I forst got the car my brakes wailed like there was no tomorrow and htye were almost new so I took them to the dealer and tehy said that they were not Acura brand so I had them put acura brand on teh car and other than one wheel that still whined a little which was fixed with a moly coating (above)

Ok, i know for a fact that's not right ... you might want to go back and see if they'll take it back and fix the problem ... BTW: what kind of place fixed 'em

From my experiences, when you use anything other than OEM brake pads, they all squeak. I've been pleased that my AEM pads don't do that.

Perhaps they didn't bleed your brakes???

Sounds to me like they used cheap-ass pads.
