Bad squeaking when braking hard offroad
I took my 2013 Rubi wheeling over the weekend and when I had to apply a bunch of pressure to the brakes on steep declines the brakes squeaked like crazy! They dont squeak under normal conditions just under hard braking...
The jeep only has 1600 miles on it... Any ideas?

Might just be some caked up mud/debris possibly. Leaves, twigs, etc can all get wedged between. If you are comfortable and knowledgeable enough(not that it's hard) take the wheels and calipers off and inspect.
Plus, when under weight on declines you get that very noticeable brake sound. Pretty much all jeeps make that sound when creeping over or down things...
