And do you believe this explanation from the mechanic at my local Hyundai dealership. He told me that Hyundai uses asbestos linings in their brakes. When Hyundai ships vehicles to the US, they remove the asbestos brake linings because of US regulations. In many cases, as in the case with my Hyundai Accent, the replacement brake linings do not work as well as the OEM asbestos linings.
My brakes are very noisy, and worst in wet weather and when the car is cold in the morning. Then when the brakes wear down, the noise is less noticeable. But then the brakes are worn and when I replace the brake pads the brakes are noisy again.
 
The reason why your brakes are noisy is mostly likely because you have metallic brake pads next time you get your brakes replaced ask for semi metallic and see if that makes it any better.
