Default Brakes

I'm am not a automotive know-how in any sense, so, this may seem like a stupid question, but...here goes! I just had the front and rear brakes replaced on my '04 SLT. 77K miles of wear. So, on the rear they replaced the pads and rotors. On the front, they replaced the pads and rotors. On top of that, they did a complete brake system flush. Here's my question...why do the brakes still squeal when I hit them? I thought it was because of the new parts, but, it's been a week and it's still there. Do I need to take it back or will the squeal wear off?

you may not have front wheel abs only rear when the brake pads heat up they sometimes slip on the rotors especially because the front brakes do the most work all durango's come with a front wheel abs option thats dodge for you?

Absolutely go back to the installer.

FYI, only the Gen 1 Durangos had the useless Rear wheel ABS as an option. The 2004 and newer are all 4 wheel ABS.
