WHAT TO WATCH FOR:

It is important to be aware of the following symptoms, as they may indicate the need for brake maintenance.

• Drag – Are your brakes sticking? Are your brakes failing to release? This would indicate service is needed.
• Pull – Is your vehicle pulling to one side when brakes are applied? This could be due to underinflated tires, misadjusted brakes, or an indicator that you need brake repair.
• Hard Pedal – Do you need to push the pedal hard to engage your brakes? This can indicate brake trouble.
• Brake Light – Is the brake light on your dashboard lit up? It could be as simple as you have to release your parking brake. It can also indicate low brake fluid, and the need for a brake inspection.
• Vibration – Does your vehicle shake or vibrate when you apply your brakes? May indicate the need to have your disc brake rotors resurfaced. It may also be an indication of a more serious problem, loose components or faulty steering mechanism.
• Squeal – Are your brakes making excessive noise? There may be some noise when you brake, but anything excessive presents an issue. If there is any squeal, screech, grinding, clunking, or clatter, you probably need brake service.
• Low Pedal – Is your brake pedal nearly touching the floor boards before the brakes engage? It may need a simple adjustment, but could indicate something more serious.
• Grab – Are your brakes touchy? If your brakes engage with very little pressure, it could indicate a problem. It could be as simple as contaminated linings, or as serious as a loose or broken component.

If your car, truck, or SUV is experiencing any of these symptoms, you could probably use a brake inspection.
