Signs Your Brakes May Need Service

Most Fort Wayne drivers are cognizant of the telltale signs of a brake system in need of attention. While some issues are obvious, others might be subtle in the signaling afforded a well-informed driver.

Below are the most common signs of brake system issues experienced in the parts comprising:

  • Should there be a grinding sensation when brakes are applied, it could signal issues with rotor or pad surfacing.
  • Noises heard when braking is initiated may be telling of a part corroded or in disrepair.
  • Any undue pressure on the brake pedal with little to no response might stem from a fluid-line leak.

With any one of the signs above experienced, it's highly encouraged to seek attention without delay. Safety being the paramount aspect for all Fort Wayne drivers.

How often should my brakes be inspected?

Ideally, the Fort Wayne driver should have brakes inspected with every regular oil change. This provides the perfect scenario for our industry-certified technicians to pore over every brake part for rust, corrosion or simple disrepair.

When is it time to replace Toyota brake pads?

The thicker your brake pad, the better your braking. When brakes wear down to thinner than 3 millimeters, replacement is recommended. Generally, you want your brake pads to be 7mm to be considered in good condition.
