lol thats a crazy dealership man. brakes squeak sometimes like i said. it doesnt always mean there is a problem. performance pads usually squeak more b/c the fricion material used is meant to withstand heat better. oh and to say you need slotted/drilled rotors to solve the problem is hillarious. usually high performance pads have more metal composition causing more squeaks. after it rains most cars will squeak for a bit till the rotor and pad surface dry up. it will happen after a car wash too somtimes, so dont stress it.
