I replaced my own front pads and rotors a year ago and mine squeal a
bunch, not all the time but especially when damp or cold. I was told
that it's because of vibration of the pads and the lack of lube behind
the pads in the pad socket. Guess what, I forgot to put some brake
lube behind the pads when I did the job, I've even thought of removing
and putting some back there but I don't cause I wonder how long it
would last anyway. I just put up with the squeal.
To me it's sad that 2007 was the last year for the Focus wagon, I'd
purchase another for sure if I could.
