Sound to me like a wear warning tab is touching rotor which do quit making noise when brakes applied and come back.


One or the other - the brakes are worn already from another fault or sometimes sensors if equipped are bent from new too close. Pads must show even wear left to right or there's more to do. If free and even and have the sensors check.


Take them out and look for flaws - some it's just pads really stink vs another type or may find the flaw looking right at them while apart again,

He/She may have just looked at them and they need to be taken out for inspection. The "thing" I'm talking about purposely makes noise worse than a fingernail on a chaulk board to be annoying to you'll check it out. Other stuff is metal in Asian and other cars can bend wrong meant both to make them quiet and some to make pads not rattle both common issues handled different ways.
About all Asian you can pull just the caliper with the bracket still on and take pads out to look but takes time and if a shop didn't do that much you wouldn't see the problem and there is the video was pretty clearly light metal on rotor or disc they are called.
Pads can crack, work fine and make noise like that too. In short, they have to be removed and find out why not glanced at for wear only which is a good sign but not with this problem. They did the work it's still up to them to solve not you or I'll write some 100 page novel on how to do them if you didn't already know let's forget that part,

There are many different reasons that brake pads may squeal, many of which are just minor techniques in the installation. Sometimes it's low quality brake pads that easily get glazed. Most of the time it's just the way the job was done.
