I live in Raleigh, brought my GS from Charlotte dealer. After a week I noticed there was vibration when braking. Drove the car ALL THE WAY BACK to Charlotte, They put new rotors and pads on. Week later I'm squealing like a 85 Pontiac Grand Prix!! (major embarrassment)
I've seen post and searches show base 350, but nothing on the F-Sport. Any help would be appreciated

seems like they did the tsb on the brake already, if they replaced with new rotor and pads.

Well it didnt work, because its squealing is ungodly loud when you get braking to 10-5 mph. I have gone from vibration to a banshee squeal. This was never an issue on my base 350. Not happy at all!!

When I took my car to get it checked out with the squealing brakes, the service advisor told me "it's just a byproduct of high performance brakes" I ended up just switching pads instead of the OEM ones but those still squeal but not as bad as the OEM pads.

This one is for the my13. Check the part # to see if it is match on the invoice.

Beside that you might need to give it sometime. Not much dealer could do if they already replaced your rotors and pads with the right part #. Brakes do make noise cant do much about it. The vibration might be because of warp rotors and dealer did what they could to fix it.

I couldn't take the squeal at just 9k miles (2015 gs350 fsport AWD), so i just replaced them with Duralast Gold Cmax pads (ceramic). Great pads and no squeal! Good bite even on our 15 degree weather.

Thanks. Will check this part number out. I jsut got mine replaced with pads and rotors and now have aweful squeal. I have never had squealing before, but now at 75k miles it sounds like a freaking pinto.

Has brake grease been used on the pads? I have found Lexus rely on shims which imho still need some grease to be affective. My rears were squealing and on inspection no grease had been used . I removed & reassembled them with an application of Mintex Ceratec.
All quiet now.
Plenty of life in the pads so didn't replace them.
