When outside temperature over 65-70F my brakes creak when I press on brake pedal and a sound coming from outside passenger front wheel. I have checked my brakes everything looks normal, what can it be? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you

That is a normal sound when your just barely moving. Majority of vehicles produce that sound. If the linings look good and rotors are within specification you should be good.

Okay, thank you. But the car is not moving, it happens just from pressing and releasing brake pedal at complete stop. Also I have owned this car for the last 14 years and it just started about 7-8 months ago.

Okay, try to clean the anti rattle Clips or replace them. Clean the backing surface of the brake pads in the back and contact points and lube them. Remove the slide pins and using an Emery cloth clean the pins and lube them to see if that will minimize the sound.

Here is a quick YouTube link to see where to grease the pads. Let us know if that helps reduce or eliminate the sound.

Watch "How to grease brake pads where to apply brake grease" on YouTube:
