I consider that normal. I don't think I ever had a car that the brakes didn't squeak, after a rain and/or sitting for a good period of time.

If it was only when they were cold I would be fine with it, but I drove 150+ miles from Charlotte Home in Zero Rain and they squeal when creeping. I'm expecting the same thing to happen that happened with my mothers GL450 Mercedes. She had a squealing issue after taking delivery, Mercedes contacted her saying there was an issue with their supplier and the pads were defective. One trip to the dealer she got new rotors and pads, no issues now!
