its probably just your brake pads you need to change, not your rotors. your car is still new. how many miles are on it?

For a 2014 you would have to be doing a lot of heavy braking and miles for the pads to squeak from too much wear. My 2012 has 22K miles and rotors/pads still have yet to be replaced. You probably just have dust accumulated inside causing the squeak. Do a thorough deep rim/tire cleaning and it'll most likely stop for a month or so until the dust builds back up.

The simplest and easiest first step is to find an empty road and do some hard full brake stops from 50-5 and then coast a little to let the brakes cool down. If you take the car to the dealership this is probably what they'll do first anyway.
Unless you have a ton of miles on the car I can't imagine a 2014 has worn out brake pads already.

I tried the hard brake stops, had the discs cleaned and they were all temporary measures. There was still life in the pads and the discs. I put up with it and wore the pads down. Once the pads wore down, I replaced them with the Porterfields and it seemed to have done the trick. No more squealing whatsoever.
I even had the dealership say to me that the squealing is normal for a C63 and to live with it.

This is absolutely the most quirky and high maintenance car I've ever owned. Honestly, I think MB got it totally wrong with the C63; the car's not a lambo, yet requires lambo-esque treatment and attention. I enjoy my car, but come on, it's a C CLASS.
