brakes front and rear have all been changed, there are times when I apply brakes they will grind, and then occasionally they will grab and lock up and squeal the tires.

Hello, I'm Danny.

When it comes to noises or sounds what we ask you to do is use your cell phone to make a video of the symptom and upload it here. That will help us determine where the problem could be coming from. Here is a few tutorial for you to view in the meantime until we hear back from you:
