My new Golf is making a noise

I have a new golf with a loud squealing sound when I reverse I have been told this is a feature with low mileage and electric handbrake?

Our answer:

Hi Valerie,

We don't think it's acceptable for a brand new car to be making a noise like that. If it persists, bring the car back to the dealer and demand that they fix it. If they cannot then they may have to replace your car for you. Make it clear that you know your rights and you won't be fobbed off.
