  1. DO YOU NEED BRAKE SERVICE? 5 WARNING SIGNS

  2. Losing faith in your car’s brakes while driving is the last thing you want to happen. Although brake repairs might occasionally come as a surprise or occur suddenly due to excessive use, there are warning indications you can watch out for to identify brake issues as soon as feasible. When you consider it, your brakes are being asked to do a lot of work. You expect them to use only brake pads that are half an inch thick for bringing tens of thousands of pounds of steel, glass, and plastic to a rapid stop from a high speed. All that effort wears down your car’s brakes eventually. You must, therefore, be aware of the telltale symptoms when you need brake service. Contact us at Fine Tuned Autos, the best auto repair service in North York, if you need brake service.

  3. 5 WARNING SIGNS YOU NEED BRAKE SERVICE Regular maintenance at an auto repair shop, Toronto is necessary for your car, but it’s easy to put off tasks like oil changes and brake repairs. But for the safety of you and your family when driving, your car’s brakes are essential. Avoid skipping brake maintenance, and if you see any of the following warning indicators of braking issues, take your car to a trustworthy auto repair facility. Here are 5 warning signs that tell you that you need brake service for your car –

  4. 1. THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATES WHEN BRAKING When you apply the brakes, have you noticed any vibrations or pulsations in your steering wheel or brake pedal? This can be a sign that your rotors’ surface is uneven. The brake pads will come into contact with an uneven surface when applied if there is a section of your disc brake rotor that is thinner than the other. This reduces the efficiency of your brakes and gives you a pulsating sensation as you brake. Visit your nearest auto repair service, North York to get the brakes repaired before it leads to bigger problems.

  5. 2. BRAKE PADS APPEAR THINNER You should get emergency repair at an auto repair shop, Toronto if you detect a change in the brake pedal’s resistance, such as if it seems “softer” or sinks all the way to the floor mat when you press on it. There can be a master cylinder issue or air or moisture in the brake system. For cars with power brakes, the brake pedal should stop between one and one and a half inches from the ground. The brake pedal should stop more than three inches from the ground if your brakes are manual.

  6. 3. SQUEAKING NOISES WHILE BRAKING Put on your brakes and listen. Your brake pads, rotors, or calipers most likely have a problem if you hear squeaking, squealing, or grinding. As your brake pads are too worn and your caliper is beginning to scrape against your rotor as you brake, you’ll probably hear squeaking or screaming. However, if you hear grinding, you should change your brake pads right away because you could endanger your calipers and rotors further in addition to having greater trouble stopping your car.

  7. 4. LEAKING BRAKE FLUID If your car is leaking fluid and you are having problems with your brakes, you should hire the right mechanic for your auto repair to investigate whether the leak is coming from the master cylinder or another location in the brake system. There could not be enough force on the brake pads to wear down on the motor if your car spills brake fluid. The device that generates the power for your brakes is the master cylinder. It has a brake fluid reservoir, just like the one you have for your wiper fluid.

  8. 5. BURNING SMELL Overheated brakes or clutch are indicated by a strong, chemical-like smell that appears after frequent forceful braking on steep roadways. Make sure your parking brake is fully released, stop right away in a safe location, and let the brakes cool. If you don’t, there’s a chance that the brake fluid will boil and cause braking failure. Smoke emanating from a wheel could indicate a jammed brake caliper, making it dangerous to drive without repairs.

  9. BRAKE REPAIR IS CRUCIAL Repairing your brakes is a crucial safety precaution. The worst-case scenario for regular driving would arise from malfunctioning brakes. Nevertheless, receiving routine brake repair and servicing has additional advantages. When brake pads are changed, your rotors will endure less wear and tear, saving you money in the long run.
