Since the beginning of this week, I have been noticing a rough, creaking noise while breaking. It is particularly noticeable after releasing my foot on the break. For context, I do not have a heavy foot nor breaks instantly. I’m generally a very careful driver. What could be causing this noise? Is it worth the trip to the dealer again? (Had to bring the car for service at 2 weeks old due to unrelated noise noted on the front left side. Diagnosis was an additional screw was accidentally left inside. Factory’s fault.
