Question ISF brake question

Just bought the 2012 IS-F, but I have some problem about the brakes.. When I try to stop the car in very low speed(10-20mph), I heard a big squeeze noise from the rear, is this normal? Or i have to bring back to dealership? Anyway I can fix this problem? The Noise is so annoying

There is a recall for the pads. Get it to the dealer and they will put new pads, I had the same issue which was fixed by replacing the pads.

I don't think the BRAKE recall applies to 2012 models.

Just call the dealership and schedule on Monday to see what's problem of my car. I hope they can fix those noise. The noise is only come out when I stop at low speed. When I stop at 40mph, it doesn't sound anything.

Exactly.... !!!

ALL the 2012 IS-F's come pre-loaded with the newest Front & Rear Brake pad part numbers.....


High Performance Brake pads squeak....

A small sequel is ok but a big one I'd have it checked out. You might have something stuck in the pads, not enough grease on the shims, ect..

Perform brake beddin by brake hard from 60 to 5mph few times and allow it to cool down for few minutes before coming to a complete stop.
