Why do I hear my brakes squeel at low speeds like under 15 mph. I have NEW Pads and Rotors. Like when Im going to a complete stop, I hear squeeks but when Im going 60 mph slowing down, I dont hear anything at all.

To be honest with you, I'm not sure. But I do now that I will never put any other brake pads on my car other than carbon ceramic ones. Very, very little brake dust on my rims. kEy.

because your pads are not worn equally or the shims behind them slipped, causing just a part of the pad to touch the rotor. take them out, put the shims in place and sand the friction part to make them even

I had the same problem when I used cheapo pads from autozone, when I switched back to OEM, all squeaks were gone.
