Default Brake problem?

When i accelerate some times it squeeks up to 5mph, is that my brakes or something more serious?

your calipers might be sticking? what year is the car and how many miles do you have on it?

well, visual brake checks usually yields nothing. they just look at the pad and can only say if it's wearing unevenly. they won't be able to tell if it's a stuck caliper issue. you'll have to fork out some change and have a mechanic run some diagnostics. might just need the calipers serviced. but i'm assuming it's the stuck caliper syndrome.
