Brake noise as in the brushing sound of the brake pads on the calipers or noise as in a squeak?

Our 2014 came off the truck with a rock stuck in the brake shield and rotor Freaked my wife out.

Will have to check that out, but it seems like the brakes are not releasing properly

could be your rear brakes - on my 2010 they wouldn't release. took a few times of setting the ER brake and releasing then backing up a few feet to get it to break free.

I think it would have been faster to remove the rear wheels and adjust the brakes but I was being ummm stubborn.

As new as it is, I'd take it back to the dealer and have them check the brakes - and have them give you a loaner car!
