Squeeling noise recently changed front brake pads?

Just changed front Brake pads and resurfaced rotors at a shop on my 06 dodge durango. At times when I slowly brake a hear a squeeling noise coming from the brakes that was not there before I'm taking it back to the shop this weeknd as it's almost been two weeks does anyone know what this could be?

2 things to look at 1: Most shops put on cheap brake pads that are semi metallic and have small pieces of medal in the pad surface and can cause squealing noises . The pads could wear past this metal and the noise will go away. 2: You could have a shim rubbing when you hit your brakes.



I would have them change the pads to some ceramic pads they have better stopping power and way less noise.

You were given the low grade brake pads or it recently rained in you area and you were out driving hard. If you were given the cheap brake pads they will squeal even more as you use them more but if you got the expensive ones and they started squealing then you have the option of taking the vehicle back and having them replaced or adjusted as the expensive ones (i.e.wagner) have a no squeal guarantee.
