Anonymous, MO (2008 Ford Edge Limted 3.5-L V6)"The brakes squeal very loudly when in reverse. Ford technicians have been unable to rectify the condition. They seem to think that it may be moisture getting to the system early in the morning. However, the problem persists through out the day and is intermittent, ie; doesn't happen on a regular basis.."
