I had my brakes done last March, which included getting all 4 of my roaters replaced and new brake pads. The whole thing ended up costing around $800 dollars because of the high cost of the roaters for my volvo S40. When I first got my car back the brakes were squeaking really loud which I found odd considering they were new. I took it back to the mechanic and he test drove it with me and told me that new brakes sometimes do that and to be hard on the brakes to break them in. Well it's now almost 6 months later and the brakes are still squeaking, and most recently the brakes are grinding when I press down on them. I think this means my brakes are out but is this possible already when I got them done less than a year ago? Is this the mechanics fault, did they rip me off? Please advise me on this as I know nothing about cars.
