If you have (by your standards) above average brake noise, What package do you have? PP with Brembos? Trying to collect some data before I make my purchase.

I don't have the PP and my brake noise is embarrassing when I turn to the left and brake. I wonder if they can lemon law for brakes noise? It definitely isn't normal. Way to loud and consistent to be normal.

I have standard brakes and experience what sounds like a squeal tab hitting a rotor. Occurs only at low speeds. I tried highway brake bedding several times, but no success with eliminating the squeal.

Go to the dealer and let them sit beside you. That's how you get your brakes fixed. Not with writing here. That's a waste of time anyway.
Maybe that's not your brake pads/disks at all?! When I got my winter package installed, the mechanic did bend one of the brake metal covers they cover the disks on the back of the disks. (Sorry! Don't know how to call this covers correct.) Driving and turning left a bit sounded like grinding "something". I had to go back and they figured out they bend the cover on the front right side. Fixed and no noise at all.

Discount Tire bent a metal cover on my 4Runner and holy cow that was an awful sound. I'd know that sound if I heard it again.

What I'm experiencing on the Mustang is the sound one hears when pads have worn to the squeal tab. My plan this weekend is to walk around the car while my son drives it so I can locate which rotor is producing the noise. Then I'll pop the wheel off and examine the pads/tabs.

My Brembo's are fine so far, no noises.

I did have issues with my last 2 cars, Shelby had Brembos, and I used this product on the back of the pads, and it eliminated all of the noises. There are other products on the market too, but this stuff seam to do the trick for me.

Jedirocker, did you discover what was making the noise? I picked up my car last night and when i got it home I noticed the squealing at low speed. Like you said, it sounds like a wear tab scraping the rotor.

Sorry. I had to explain to the person recording how to use my phone. I tried getting more videos but the cameraman said hell no cause it hurts his ears when I brake. It's way louder than what you can hear in the recording.

I will try the quiet brake spray but my pads have been replaced and the noise only happens when I'm braking at low speeds and turning to the left. Why does it continue to do it while turning left and ONLY left all the time. Tired of hearing the high performance brake pad excuse. They make the noise with the old and new pads only while fricken turning left.

I have the GT PP with Brembo brakes and they are silent.

Now brake dust is another story.

Right! I escalated it and went to 2 dealers, they don't have a fix. Rachel can't help because some unhelpful dumb shit named Mark from Ford Corp said nothing can be done. Mark had no ability to help or to authorize any additional work. I am thankful for Rachel escalating it but they're saying it's normal. FUCK THAT! Going to keep posting it on Ford's Facebook.

I've add the video to your case, John, and sent it up again. I'll let you know if I find out any additional next steps.
