squeaking, especially if only when the brakes are cold, may not immediately be a problem. City buses, garbage trucks, postal vehicles, and school buses around here squeak all day long, because of how hard the drivers drive them: Mash the gas, slam the brakes. repeat. repeat again. Repeat all day long. 🙂 ---

Yeah, they have a good reputation and the guy said specifically, “I don’t want to charge you if we can’t fix it right.” So, that’s probably what i’ll do. Thanks for the response! ---

Very true! And the brakes still work which is the most important part. Thanks for the response and reassurance! ---

Yeah, that might be the solution to all of it. I’ll specifically ask for new brake pads to be changed. Thanks for the response! ---

From the above, not only the pads but the emergency/parking brake shoes. Especially the parking brake shoes. ---
