I park my car in a garage overnight. When starting it up in the morning, I back down an inclined driveway (about 30 degrees) and once I reach the level street and put the car into drive and straighten out the car, the brakes grind?

the brake noise your hearing could be that you need new front brakes. This video shows the job being done on a similar car but the process is the same.

Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.
