In the last couple of days my breaks started squeaking but only at a certain pressure and not always when I press with that amount of pressure. Is there way to fix that?

Wait until you're about to need to stop and slam on the brakes!

In all seriousness...get new pads.

I have the same problem. Mine squeek only sometimes. Took it to the dealer KNOWING they weren't going to fix it, and they didn't. They told me to bring it back at about 20-30K and they'll see if the pads are "glazed" I promptly told him I'm not an idiot, and the brakes are only covered for 12 months/12,000 miles. I then walked out. I'm just going to replace them with some ceramics soon.

I don't know if this may help or not ? but I had the same problem with my 05 GT, until I found out there was a TSB.. I then copied and printed it out, took the car back to the dealership, showed them the TSB and they fixed it under warranty, with no questions asked...Just go to http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=662298 and look for TSB 05-18-10 and hopefully, that may help you out...

That's only applicable to Mustangs made before certain date in 2005. Helps me none.

While it may help Poop none, it helps me a bunch. Didn't know about this TSB and I'm almost positive my car was manufactured before that date. Sweet, hopefully it'll get rid of this squeeling!

i had the same problem, take off the pads and sand them lightly on a flat surface clean out the gas groove in the pads,clean off all brake hardware and clips with brake cleaner then apply antisieze or litium grease to all pad clips and backing of the pads when they meet the caliper piston and finger side of caliper. this solved my issues, mine would squeak in the rear left only at times when braking or when slightly turning one way or the other i believe it was the metal pad backing moving back and forth on the hardware clips that are also metal and were fairly dry of lube. no repl. needed
