I had a pretty bad squeak going on from 0-10 or 15mph when taking off from a stop.

I needed new pads and rotors, and the brake sensors didn't come off without damaging them, so I replaced those too. I thought it might be the problem noted above, but decided not to mess with the parking brake and just replace the parts listed above.

In short, the squeak is completely gone after simply just replacing the sensors, in my case I am pretty sure it was just the sensors slightly rubbing on the rotor surface causing the squeak.
