Mine does it too and I only have 1300 miles on my car. I noticed that these rotors rust much faster than my '07S did. To avoid the horrible squeal, I try not to use the brakes when I back out of my driveway. The little bit of driving I do from my driveway to the next road is enough for the pads to pull most of the rust off. When I do hit them, they make very little noise. I'll have to think about some different pads later.
