So.....i checked my brake pads and they are all fine and i still get this squealing noise when i press on the brakes. The weird thing is, when i press down the brakes hard, it wont make the sound but when i am stopping my car at a slower rate and pressing on the brakes "softly" it makes the sound. I took it to my dealer to have it checked out and they said that it was fine. I took out my car for a drive and IT STILL MAKES THIS ANNOYING SOUND. Pls tell me if neone else has/had this problem and tell me how to fix it?

You basically have to take the pads off and re-apply the brake grease between the shims pads again. You can get the stuff at Pep Boys, Autozone, etc.

There may be a related TSB on the issue if you have not had it performed already.

Here is the "TSB" for the brake squeal problem. Please print out and bring to your Mazda dealer, then let us know how it goes.
