My dealer swapped my brakes with a CLA Demo vehicle
For 1.5 years I have been going back and forth with my dealer over brake squealing. They say the service bulletin isn't applicable in Australia.
It only occurs when driving slowly and coming to a slow, full stop.
I have paid for new brake pads and rotors and the issue was still unfixed.
Last month, and without my approval, they swapped my brakes with a demo CLA to "test" whether it would fix it. Should I be worried that 1) They have put used parts on my vehicle and 2) It's a different model?
The squealing has stopped but now I have a metal sound that makes me think the parts don't correctly fit.

E class, C class
Thankfully this hasn't happened on my C class, I do have this problem on my E class but it isn't that bad so I just live with it.
That is a big no IMO, I thought the CLA runs on single caliper fronts? Wonder how they all fit together.
