The brakes in your vehicle are essential to a safe and accomplished drive. Whether you're cruising around Perkasie, running errands in Warminster, or visiting friends in Warrington, you'll want to make sure that your car's brakes are in tip-top shape. How? Pay attention to the four warning signs below and schedule a brake service appointment with our Fred Beans Hyundai of Doylestown team.
- Shuddering or Shaking - Does your car shake when you brake? When the brake rotors are warped or damaged, they will cause your vehicle to shudder when you use them. You'll need to have the brake rotors replaced before more damage occurs.
- Squealing Sound - Does your car make a high-pitched squeal whenever you use the brakes? When the brake pads become worn, metal will scrape against metal, causing your car to make a loud squealing sound when you use the brakes. You'll need to have the brake pads replaced as soon as possible.
- Spongy Brake Pedal - Does your foot have to touch the floor before your car comes to a stop? When the brake line is damaged, or there isn't enough brake fluid, it takes more pressure to slow or stop your vehicle. This can be extremely dangerous, so please schedule a brake inspection if you notice this red flag.
- Brake Warning Light - Did a bright red or orange brake warning light appear on your dash? When this light shows up, something isn't right with your brake system. You'll need to schedule a brake inspection right away. If it's flashing, stop immediately and contact your service center.
