What is the reason for the abnormal noise when braking while reversing in the City?

The reasons for the abnormal noise when braking while reversing in the City: noise from the ABS braking system, foreign objects mixed in the braking system, abnormal operation of the brake caliper, excessive wear of the brake pads, and other factors. Among these, the most common causes are foreign objects mixed in the braking system or excessive wear of the brake pads. It is recommended that the owner visit a 4S shop as soon as possible to identify the cause. The City 2019 1.5L Manual Base model is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum horsepower of 131, a maximum power of 96 kilowatts, a maximum power speed of 6,600 rpm, a maximum torque of 155 Nm, and a maximum torque speed of 4,600 rpm.
I've been driving for ten years and own a Honda City. Recently, I've been hearing a 'squeaking' sound from the chassis whenever I brake while reversing, which is quite annoying. The issue most likely lies with the brake pads or discs. For instance, when brake pads wear down and their edges become thinner, the change in braking force direction during reversing can easily cause noise at the friction points. Another possibility is rust or dust and debris on the brake disc surface, especially after rain or prolonged parking, which can make the noise more noticeable. During my last maintenance visit, I found that some cars may experience exacerbated issues due to slight suspension looseness. I recommend not delaying and getting the braking system and suspension components checked early, replacing any worn parts promptly to prevent further wear and safety risks. You can also pay attention to cleaning the wheel hubs regularly or have a mechanic check the brake thickness during routine maintenance. The City generally has stable braking performance, but small oversights can still lead to potential hazards.
