My mom had an '09 ES350 and when coming to a stop from 15-25 mph the rear break makes a squeeqing noise and it's not the kind of noise breaks make when they are being worn in or about to expire. It sounds like like it's almost creaking. Like wet wood rubbing against another piece of wet wood.

Anyone experience this before? My mom doesn't drive fast nor does she real excessively. The car has 25,000 miles on it. I have an is250 and I drive/ break way more aggressively (25,000 miles about) and I just recently wore out my breaks.

 

Check the TSIB's for this brake problem. I believe there is one and that they performed it on my 2007 and it fixed the problem. My recollection is that I went in and complained about noise from the front brakes and they said no it is coming from the rear brakes and we will repair it -new pads etc. - under the TSIB.

Same for me although all they did was replace the pads. No truing the rotors or anything. Just pad replacement. But, for 23,000 miles since they replaced them under TSIB, no problems either.

 

I think that is right - just pads and the related hardware and maybe some insulators, but did not turn the rotors.
