Hi there. From the description you have provided, it sounds like, a brake pad wear indicator (sensor) may be touching the brake rotor. The wear indicator on the brake pad, is there to let you know, the brake pads are ready for replacement. Ignoring this high pitched squeal, will result in your vehicle’s brakes going metal to metal, adding to the cost of repair. I recommend having your vehicle’s whistle and squeaking noise while driving be diagnosed and repaired by a certified technician from YourMechanic.
