Not squealing loudly. More like squeaking a bit. Kind of like how brake pads sound at the first sign they need to be replaced soon, but you can still go for a bit without chaning them, if that makes sense.

I dont know about this car, but I used to use my brake pads pretty fast, and after looking at these, I wouldnt think I'll get too much past where you're at now...

Mine are still quiet with 9000 miles. You can probably get a decent look at them through the wheels to see if the wear indicators are hitting the rotors. I doubt the dealer will replace brakes under warranty.

They will make noise sometimes when they are cold, thats no problem. If they make a scraping sound when you are not braking thats the wear indicators.
