958 is alot of miles for a brand new 1-day old car. Are these your miles or test drive miles prior to the sales? If they are low-speed test drive miles, your pads might be glazed enough to cause a squeek, but not bedded properly.
Use this reference and burn in your pads:

It's not going to harm your brakes.
