Brakes squeak in reverse ?

Notice the other day when reversing the front passenger brakes would squeak. But when I drive off, nothing ?? Kinda weird huh

Do they do it consistently in reverse? Note that it's common for rust to form on the rotors, even after sitting just overnight or a few hours in wet or humid conditions. Mine does this almost every morning in the summer when I first back out of the driveway, then it's fine the rest of the day.

Notice awhile back the noise in reverse. Then went away, then came back days later. Kinda weird :-/

I'll bet it's just oxidation on the rotors. It's very common. Mine will be literally red with rust just after washing the car.
