Why does my Kia Rio make a strange noise while braking?

I just bought a used Kia Rio and I noticed that it makes a strange noise whenever I brake. It's not a grinding noise, but more like a high-pitched squeak. Is this normal or should I get it checked out?

Hi Sophia, it's always a good idea to get strange noises checked out, especially when you just bought a used car. I recommend bringing it to a trusted mechanic for an inspection and to address any potential issues. Better safe than sorry!

Don't worry, that's completely normal. The Kia Rio is known for making this noise while braking. It's nothing to be concerned about. Just make sure to get regular maintenance check-ups to keep your car in tip-top shape.

I had the same issue with my Kia Rio. Turns out, it just needed new brake pads. I recommend bringing it in for a quick brake pad replacement, and the noise should go away.

It's always a good idea to get any unusual noises checked out. Bring it to a mechanic and have them inspect the brakes to make sure everything is functioning properly.
