Im going to the dealer tomorrow because every time I brake, there is an audible squeal like a tractor trailor is coming to a stop. Whats interesting is very light and heavy brake input doesnt cause it, only medium. Also it usually gets worse as the rotors and brakes heat up.. anyone have similar luck? I tried to break in the brakes to no avail.

Your car was the one sitting for a long time, right?
It's normal.
Drive harder. Brake harder. No mo noise.

You just need to bed them in. Take the car to an appropriate place at an appropriate time and do a few hard stops from the vicinity of 100 MPH. That should put an end to the squealing.
