The brake pads are a dense hard material. Businesses like cabs put cheap pads on to stop this due to there frequent stop & go situations. Draw back is shorter life.They don't last near as long. On the other hand, My rotors went bad at 20,000. I replaced them with NAPA's best ones. My stock pads were like new so I left them on. About a month after this fix my brakes stopped squawking. So that kind of shot down the cheap pad solution. Regardless the cheap pad repair does work.

Chances are its the brake pads them selves squeaking. Take them off and put some never-seize on the back of the pad. higher quailty brake pads have a stainless steel sim there but never-seize does the trick too. Its just the pad sliding inside the caliper
