Yeah all the time and I've taken it to the dealer multiple time to complain and they can't fix it I tried to request that they replace the pads and rotors but Mazda wouldn't cover it.

Mine used to squeak a little bit once in a while, but ever since taking out to the road course the squeak has not come back.

Every once in a while, but after hard braking it usually goes away so the mountain run or similar suggestion probably makes sense.
