Warning Signs Your Brakes Need Attention

Brakes usually give you fair warning when they need care. If you notice any of these red flags, bring your vehicle in for a quick look.

Squeaking or Grinding

High-pitched squeals mean your pads are getting thin. A harsh metallic grinding noise means the pads are gone completely and are damaging your rotors.

Soft or Spongy Pedal

If the brake pedal feels mushy or sinks close to the floor before your car slows down, you might have air in the lines or low brake fluid.

Steering Wheel Shaking

Vibration in your steering wheel or pedal when you step on the brake usually indicates uneven or warped rotors that need turning or replacing.
