I've been hearing some occasional brake squeal from the front brakes on an 09 Prius - the last year of the 2nd gen cars. The brake pads have about 50% left on them last time I pulled the front wheels to check the brakes, the car is just shy of 150K. I was debating replacing the brake pads, shims and abutment clips/support ledges out of PM and to hopefully cure this squeal.
I live in the valley of two hills so the service brakes are getting applied to scrub the rotors clean of rust, but I'm concerned about rust jacking. Am I over thinking this?
