    If he is a good mechanic he will know what he is talking about.Other possible causes, see here >>> http://auto.howstuffworks.com/auto-parts/brakes/brake-problems/brakes-squeaking.htm

    It is more then likely its just the pads binding,

    Try another mechanic.I can't imagine how a tie rod would be linked to the brakes.Most likely scenario would be dust buildup (Drum brakes).Worn pads,scored rotor (Disc brakes).

    It's more likely that the brake shoes are wearing away.

    I think tie rod has to do with steering and wheel system. Get another opinion.
