We count on our brakes for our safety – sometimes with just a moment’s notice. That’s why it’s so important that yours are reliable. If you notice any of these warning signs, make sure you bring in your vehicle right away for brake repair at Heritage Honda Bel Air.
Grinding or Squeaking Noises
Has it started to become unusually loud when you stop? Do you notice a grinding noise of metal, or even a screeching or squealing sound? Loud noises are typically a sign that your brake pads have become worn. You’ll want to get them replaced right away.
Vibrating Steering Wheel
Does your steering wheel vibrate when you brake? Does your vehicle pull to one side? That typically indicates that your rotors are worn or uneven. Pulling to one side can also be a result of uneven wear of your brake pads. It’s time to schedule repairs or maybe even order a replacement.
Something is Burning
There are lots of issues that could cause a burning smell. However, if you smell a burning odor that smells like chemicals, that’s typically caused by overheating from frequently stops. Make sure you give your brakes a break.
Brake Light is On
There’s no mistaking this one. If your brake light is illuminated on your dashboard that signals that you have an issue with your brakes. This doesn’t indicate exactly what the issue is, so it’s important to visit our dealership and have your brakes inspected by our trained technicians.
