[QUOTE="Rruuff Day, post: 117639, member: 2217"] Agree with the above. Have never been caught in the rain with my C7 and when I wash it, it has time to dry and I'm using the brakes before it gets put away. But that being said, I had been caught in the rain with my C6 and same thing. Parked wet results in the rotors oxidizing (good word Derek...) and the pads sticking in that position until you try to move. My C6 didn't squeal afterwards but there was a distinct scrape sound when you braked gently for a couple of stops... I assume that was the pads scuffing the rotors clean again.... Nothing I worried about and nothing that stuck around or created any other noise or problem. IMO, drive it and find another dealer or ask yours why he didn't think of this.This is a common occurrence with a lot of vehicles; not just Corvettes.... I can't believe any service manager worth his salt hasn't heard this complaint before.... My Rav4 does it as well.... [/QUOTE]
