If you paid someone to do it, have them re-check them, which may be causing ABS sensor to trip brake light.

Check the volume of fluid in the master cylinder reservoir. Low fluid would account for an intermittent brake light.
Check to be certain you are not leaking any fluid.
Noises may be from many causes.
Did you "bed" the pads & rotors?

Driver side front is making a noise on my 2003 honda pilot

Although "making a noise is a little vague" and you changed the bearings I assume the noise is rotational and changes with speed.
Only 2 months ago I had the same problem which I found to be the brake rotors. Examining them with the wheel off I could see the build up of rust on the outer diameter touched the brake calipers The cure, take a small hammer and bang the rust off, note the rotors were only a year old but I do live in the rust belt.

New brakes and rotors still makes a grinding noise

If you have eliminated the noise coming fom the rear brakes, then the sound in front could be the wheel hub or bearings. When the brakes work, there is a certain amount of centering that happens when the brakes grab the rotor. Also, it puts stress on the CV joint to have Brakes on one side and Transmission Torque on the other.

You need someone to check these 2 items for roughness.

My 1992 chev lumina apv van stalls everytime i put on the brakes at every red light it restarts after no codes are coming up what could it be?:

check to make sure the power brake booster is not leaking, do this by starting the van and just let it idle in park and push the brake pedal if the engine stalls or surges or you hear a sucking noise under the dash then replace the power brake booster if there is none of these systems then replace the idle control motor. GOOD LUCK

My brakes were replaced about 3 months ago but the brake warning light just came on last night, why? About 2wks ago I had my ball joints replaced and they checked the brakes because of screaching when I...

The brake light will come on when the brake fluid is low or the parking brake is on. New brakes can make noise at first but not after 3 months. Screeching is caused by low quality pads/rotors or a lack of lubricant on brake parts and behind the pads.

Its possible the brake pads have worn down again, if they are and , obviously , you need to change them. Pay attention to the brake caliper pistons, check that they are not sticking or seized and also the caliper slider. Free off these parts. Hope that helps

There is a squicky annoying noise coming from the brakes everytime i hit them. it has been going on for like a month now. what could be the solution?

This is most likely a warning coming from your brakes that the pads need replacing.

There is a device in the brake pads which squeaks/squeals when the pad wears doen to a certain point.

The noise will eventually go away, but so will your brakes. It's time to have them serviced.

Brakes and rotors making noise

Were metallic brake pads installed? If they were and are hidhly aggressive, yes. Give them a few miles to smooth out.
