While acceleration and power are an important part of driving, braking and stopping are equally important. Whether you're driving a new Chevy Silverado 1500 in Wayne, NJ, or you've been cruising around Montclair in a Chevy Equinox, you'll want to make sure your brakes are in good working order.
What Are The Warning Signs Of Bad Brakes?
The best thing about the brake system is that it will let you know when something is wrong with your brakes. If you see any of the following red flags, you'll want to schedule a brake inspection and/or repair as soon as possible.
- Squealing - Do you hear a loud squealing sound when your brakes are being used? This is a sign that your brake pads are worn and need to be replaced.
- Shuddering - Does your Chevy Impala shake when you slow down or stop? This is a sign that your rotors are worn and need repair.
- Spongy Brake Pedal - Does your brake pedal go all the way to the floor? This is a sign that something's wrong with your brake fluid or brake line and needs to be checked out.
- Brake Warning Light - Your car has sensed that something isn't right with your brake system and is warning you to have it inspected.
