2019 Honda Civic Sport 4K miles - brakes make bad grinding noise on steep downhill

Just drove my 2019 Honda Civic Sport - with just over 4K miles in it - down a steep hill (15% or so grade) with traffic and a stop sign at the bottom. The brakes made an awful grinding noise as I braked waiting to get to the stop. My first new car in 15 years - so is there something wrong with my braking technique, or take it to the dealer? Still under warranty. The brakes seem to be fine on the flat. (Live in SF so hills like that are unavoidable!). Thanks!

or perhaps you left it parked for some time, rained and discs are rusty?
