My truck has been squealing when backing up for a while. I had the rotors and brake pads replaced. But lately it has been doing it more than normal because of all the snow we've had. The brakes squeal when the brakes are not applied. The more pressure you apply to the brakes the less it...

Do a search of the forum, there is much discussion about this topic.
