Squealing brakes from rear brakes started after 9,000 miles. Drove it to dealership and they stated it was not a major issue and was common. Several days later the problem continued to occur and took it to a different dealership and the issue was loud squealing when stopping. They inspected the brakes and could not resolve the problem and had no fix for it. My car now has 11,800 miles and the issue still has not changed. People can hear this from several feet away since it is not a quiet sound. It is getting to a point that if they cannot resolve the issue, I will get rid of the car.
