Why brakes sweek?

Ok guyz, I have a 7th gen and had 3 past gen and all had break noise. My car has 24k on the clock and I took all the pads out to inspect, clean, re-grease, check stock feelers as I call them. Everything seems fine, but I still have sweek on first push then second push it is gone.


Note if I stay on first push sweek is still there. If I release then push again it goes away. Strange pads are 70% front and 90 back.

some pads just have a factory defect of too much metallic content, that will make them squeak.

For both you guys take it back to the dealership and complain. Same thing happened to my wife's Rogue and they turned the rotors and replaced the pads under warranty.

I get that too from time to time but just had my brakes inspected and they said everything looked good but if i can get the rotors replaced under warranty I am going to try and do that.
