5 Signs You Need to Have Your Brakes Changed

5 Signs you Need to Have your Brakes Changed When inspecting your car for function, there is nothing more important than checking for your brakes. 5% of all car accidents occur because of defective brakes. WORN-OUT PADS 1 Your pads are comprised of calipers that squeeze disc brakes which is what most cars use, and should have at least a quarter inch of thickness before you should have it changed. STRANGE NOISES WHENEVER YOU BRAKE This is quite obvious. High-pitched squeels that emerge from a sensor on your car whenever you brake is a sign that your brakes are having trouble stopping or slowing your car and need to be serviced and likely, replaced. TENDENCY TO PULL TO ONE SIDE 3 This indicates a possibly broken caliper stuck on squeezing and slowing the rotation on one of your tires, thus creating the pulling sensation that your car wants to turn to one side or the other. VIBRATIONS DURING BRAKING 4 This results from warping on your rotors which creates a pulsing thrumming feedback sensation whenever you brake. UNRESPONSIVE BRAKE PEDAL If you've ever had to keep pushing on the brake pedal right down to the floor without stopping or slowing much at all, then this is a nightmare come true for any motorist. www.gerrysautomotive.com Gerry's Automotive Ltd Created by: Tel No.:604-826-0519 Search INC. 6480 Riverside St. Abbotsford BC V4X 1T9 CA O--
