well just recently i noticed sometimes when i lightly press my brake pedal it sounds like driver side rear tire/brake area has a very light squeal/sqeak, I can only hear this if I have something next to the car im driving by to Reflect the sound, so its not epic loud. Seems like i have to be going like 40-45mph and press the brakes lighty and if im near like a Wall or something for the sound to reflect off of, ill hear this light squeel.

I'm wondering if its the brake pad or maybe doing one of my burn-outs something got stuck between the caplier or pad ,like a stone or rubber.

I'm getting the cars oil changed at the dealer on monday, im debating whether to have them take a look to see if the pad is wearing down or what not.. otherwise ill just ride it out for now, it might go away or whatever. Since it's not all the time and its not that bad or loud most people wouldn't notice but im pretty Anal

It's not a serious issue yet but i like to keep my car in sound shape

car has about 17,500 miles on it.

ideas?

Probably wouldn't hurt to have them check it out. Still have the warranty on it?

wont take long to pull the wheels and inspect the brakes. you can always try to stop squeek spray. just pull the pads, clean them up and spray the backside of the pad only. you will definitely see something cracked or broken (if it is there) if you pull the pads.
