How to troubleshoot squeaky brakes in a Kia Ceed?

I have noticed that my Kia Ceed's brakes are making a squeaky noise whenever I press them. How can I solve this issue and prevent it from happening again in the future?

Squeaky brakes can be caused by a buildup of brake dust and debris, which can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Make sure to also check your brake pads and rotors for any visible damage.

Another possible cause of squeaky brakes is worn brake pads. If your brake pads are thin, they may need to be replaced. It's important to regularly check the thickness of your brake pads to ensure safe driving.

Applying a thin layer of anti-squeal brake lubricant on the back of the brake pads can help reduce noise. Just make sure not to get any on the braking surface.
