2016 GMC Canyon 4dr Crew Cab 6ft bed

305-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic 4WD w/low range

41000 mi Rear brakes make a squeaking noise when driving over rough roads and lightly applying the brakes. Disengage the brakes and the sound goes mostly away. Dealer replaced rear rotors, calipers, and pads. Noise went away completely. 
Unfortunately the noise is back after a couple of months of quietness. At this point I'm just going to use brake grease on the pad backing and pins. It's not worth fighting with the dealer over this issue.
