    I have roughly 9000kms on my 2022 3500 at4 LB. From the very first drive off the lot I noticed how poor the brakes were.

    So a week ago I did a full brake replacement and ran into an abs problem and a shot bearing so I replaced both wheel bearings, both CV axles. After about 2 hours of driving its back to having a slight squeak every rotation of the wheel but gets louder while turning. Could this be the pads...
