How Do I Know I Need New Brakes?
You engage your brakes each time you drive. When you do this, you're causing small amounts of wear and tear on your brake pads. Over time, the protective coating on your brakes will wear down. As your brake pads slowly become thinner and thinner, they'll need to be replaced. Here are some signs to look out for:
- Squealing or screeching noises: If your brake pads need to be replaced, the first thing you'll notice is a squealing, screeching, or whining noise when you engage your brakes. This sound is caused by a small, metallic shim indicator that's embedded in your brake pad to alert you that your brake pads need replacing.
- Deep metallic grinding or growling: If you're starting to hear a deep metallic grinding or growling noise, it can be a sign that not only are your brake pads worn away, but that your brake discs and calipers are making contact. It's time to bring your vehicle in for servicing.
- Indicator lights: There is an indicator light that will light up when your brake pads need replacing. If this light does come on, you'll need to replace both the brake pads and the indicator light.
