Car Maintenance Tips

4 signs that you need your brakes checked

Brakes are crucial to keeping you and your loved ones safe on the road! Protect yourself, and those that you care about by looking out for these warning signs.

 

Worn Pads

Brake pads should be >2mm thick. Take the time to check every now and then to ensure they aren't wearing out!

 

Strange Sounds
High-pitched squealing or harsh grinding sounds are signs that brake pads need to be replaced.

 

Vibrations
Stepping on brake pedal shouldn't cause any vibrations, so any pulsing, especially in regular conditions, is a sign to get things checked!

 

Temperamental Pedal
Taking longer to bring your vehicle to a halt when brakes are applied, or needing to floor the pedal before the brakes engage mean a proper check is due.
