Why does my Ford Fiesta make a squealing noise when I brake?

Recently, my Ford Fiesta has been making a loud, high-pitched squealing noise every time I brake. It's quite annoying and I'm worried there might be something wrong with my car. Has anyone else experienced this issue and if so, what did you do to fix it?

Hi John, this is a common issue with Ford Fiestas. It usually means that your brake pads are wearing down and need to be replaced. I recommend taking your car to a mechanic to get them checked out.

My Fiesta used to make that same noise and it turned out to be a loose belt. I would check that as well.

I had this problem and it was due to a loose pin in the brake caliper. I had to get it tightened and it fixed the noise.
