New Brake Pads Needed?
Replacing brake pads is the most common repair job for braking systems. The reason is simple--the pads are continually rubbing against the brake disk to stop your car. If you are experiencing braking problems, worn pads should be the first thing to check. If they are worn thin or cracked, be sure to schedule a full brake service and inspection. In addition to brake pads, there are other components that could fail, resulting in another type of brake replacement.
In light of the above, regular brake service is critical for the safety of you and your passengers. Regular brake service will give you peace of mind knowing that your vehicle is operating as safe as possible. Be sure that your vehicle has fully functioning brakes so that it will come to a complete and precise stop.
Take note of the issues listed below. These are indicators that you may be headed to some form of brake replacement.
- The brake pedal falls “spongy” or you have to press it farther to the floor more than usual before the brakes engage.
- Your vehicle pulls to the right or left when you step on the brake pedal.
- Unusual noises (squealing) caused by metal-on-metal contact or vibrations occur during braking.
Caution: Many auto shops offer brake repair specials. But be careful! The cheapest price is not always the best price in the long run for a service or brake replacement. The least expensive option may not provide the most complete analysis of a problem.
