Only while driving my car squeals. It starts when I drive. It stops when I stop. It is very loud. I have replaced in the front: brakes, rotors, wheel bearings, calipers. These have been changed 3 times. The rear I have only changed the brakes. This happens all of the time whether driving straight or turning the wheel. One thing I did notice is while driving up a steep hill and accelerating at a higher rate the noise will sometimes stop. Otherwise it is always there. I have had it to a garage. They can not give me an answer besides replacing all of the parts I just did. Is there a solution or do I drive it in the lake and buy new?

Check dust shields for hitting rotors and or rust doing the same. This would have to be really physically looked at to properly diagnose however.

Thanks. This has been done. After driving a long distance the noise sometimes stops. I don't know. I'm at a loss. Thanks for your suggestion on this.

Have your brake hoses checked to calipers they may be hanging calipers up and you are hearing brake squealers.
