Noise when taking foot off brake

I have the 2016 F Sport - lately I have noticed an annoying sound when I remove my foot of the brake - any ideas?

I just noticed the same thing. It’s a light squeak. I have a 2015 F Sport.

Do you both have automatic parking brakes as an option? Can you be more specific to the type of sound? Is it grinding, high pitch, long, short etc.

Anyways, winter time can have an impact on brakes.

I have automatic parking brake. I notice it when the car is in motion. A subtle squeak, as if something is rubbing, gets louder at higher speed. It goes away immediately after I press the brake.
