Signs That Your Vehicle Needs Brake Service & Repair

• Unusual Noises: A high-pitched squealing or grinding noise when you apply the brakes is often an indicator of worn brake pads or rotors.
• Warning Lights: If the brake warning light illuminates on your dashboard, it’s a clear sign that there’s a problem in the braking system.
• Reduced Responsiveness: If the brakes feel spongy or if the pedal sinks to the floor, there could be a leak in the braking system.
• Vibration: A vibrating or pulsating brake pedal, especially when coming to a stop, can be indicative of warped rotors.
• Pulling to One Side: If the vehicle pulls to one side when you brake, it may mean there’s uneven wear or that brake fluid is contaminated.
• Burning Smell: A sharp, chemical odor after repeated hard braking can indicate overheating brakes or clutch.
• Increased Stopping Distance: If you notice that it’s taking longer to stop than usual, it’s a sign that your brakes are not as efficient as they should be.
• Physical Wear: When inspecting the brakes, if the brake pad is less than 1/4 inch thick, it’s time for a replacement.
• Brake Fluid: If the brake fluid is dirty or low, it can indicate a problem. Regularly checking and changing your brake fluid is essential for proper brake function.
• Steering Wheel Shakes: If the steering wheel shakes when you brake, it might mean there’s an issue with the rotor.
