Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How often should my brakes be inspected?
It’s a good idea to have your brakes inspected at least once a year, or every 12,000 miles—whichever comes first. However, if you notice any unusual symptoms, have them checked sooner.
Q. What are the common signs that I need new brake pads?
Squealing or grinding sounds, reduced braking power, or a brake pedal that feels soft or low are common signs. You may also notice a warning light on your dashboard in some vehicles.
Q. Can I keep driving if my brakes are squealing?
Squealing brakes could mean your brake pads are worn and need replacing. While your car may still stop, continuing to drive can lead to rotor damage and more expensive repairs, so it’s best to have them inspected promptly.
Q. What causes brake rotors to become warped?
Warping can happen from excessive heat caused by aggressive braking or worn brake pads. It can also occur over time from general wear and tear or driving through water when the rotors are hot.
Q. Why does my steering wheel shake when I hit the brakes?
This is usually a sign of warped brake rotors. When the surface of the rotor becomes uneven, it can cause vibrations that you’ll feel in the steering wheel when braking.
Q. How long does a brake service appointment usually take?
Most brake inspections and minor repairs can be completed within an hour or two. More complex issues or full replacements may take longer, depending on the condition of the brake system.
