Squeaky Front brakes

Does anyone else have squeaky front stock brakes? I only have 27k mi on the truck and have a terrible squeak only when coming to a stop. Also, the rear brakes seem to lock up when it is wet or raining at slow speeds(5mph). I have adjusted the rear brakes at oil changes and the fronts have over half the original thickness. I did a search and could not find anything except replacement post. It is starting to get on my nerves with both brake issues. Could the anti-lock sensor be bad on the rear? Do I need to replace the front pads now? I would like to get this fixed before the cold weather sets in .

Thanks all!
