Unhappy New Brake/rotor Sqeeching

I have the front new Cryo rotors with Autozone ceramic brakes replaced about a month ago. Now is sqeeching when local streets or when at street lights.
What causes the new brake to sqeech?

Is it the screech like when the brakes need to be changed, or more like a squeel? Could be that they didnt put enough (or any) brake quiet

Most likely didnt put enough brake quiet... And even though they're new, it can still make the sound. All it takes is some knucklehead to drop the pad and bend the sensor.

My Autozone Brakes came with some bags of fluid and I asked the mechanic what was that and they ignored me. I dont know what that for, maybe thats for decreasing noise.

yup most likely. The ceramics come with their own lube iirc. Or if it was the autozone brand, it would be like this:




But being that its a shop, they could have had their own lube. Since its only been a month, you should be able to take it back and see if they will fix it for you.

throw some brake quiet grease on the back pad shims, and check your clips on the pad as well.
