Default Car Brakes

Would anyone happen to know what will make brakes make squeeching sounds, they are basically brand new, just installed about a month ago, but they make sounds like they haven't been replaced in years

Grandma says her son didn't put any lube on them, so I'm guessing thats it.

Thanks for the help =)

yup, just a cheap little pouch at pepboys, called brake lube or somethin, or you can get a bigger thing of it for a few dollars, but as little as you do brakes, i'd say just buy 1 packet at a time
