The brakes are some of the most important components on your car. Without them, your vehicle wouldn’t be able to do one of its most important functions: stop. To ensure that your car’s brakes work as they’re designed, you need to get regular brake maintenance.
A Chirping or Squeaking Noise
Loud chirping or squeaking noises coming from the brakes is never a good sign. Most of the time this means there are some parts of the braking system that are worn out. Usually, it’s the brake pads or rotors, but to be sure it’s a good idea to get your brakes checked out.
A Mushy Brake Pedal
If your brake pedal feels soft or mushy, you should take your vehicle in to get it checked out. A soft-feeling brake pedal could mean that your brake fluid has gone bad or that it is leaking. Even if it’s not the brake fluid, a soft pedal means that you’re likely in need of service.
Any Issues Slowing Down or Stopping
More important than odd sounds or a soft-feeling brake pedal is actually slowing down or stopping. If you notice any issues slowing down or stopping, you need to get your car in for service right away. Don’t wait. When your car can’t slow or stop, you’re putting yourself and the people around you in danger.
