Your brakes are your car’s most important safety feature. Whether you’re navigating busy streets or cruising on the highway, functional brakes ensure you can stop quickly to avoid accidents. Failure to maintain your brakes puts everyone on the road in danger.
Signs Your Brakes Need Attention
- Unusual Noises When Braking: If you hear squealing or grinding, it often means brake pads need to be replaced or there's another issue.
- Vibration When Braking: A shaking or vibrating brake pedal may indicate warped rotors.
- Spongy or Unresponsive Pedal: A brake pedal that feels soft might indicate air in the brake lines or a fluid leak.
- Dashboard Brake Warning: A brake warning light on your dashboard should never be ignored. It’s a clear signal that something is wrong.
