Brakes are responsible for slowing down and stopping your vehicle, and they work by converting kinetic energy into heat through friction. More importantly, they are your vehicle’s most important safety features. So, keeping them in good working order is crucial for your safety on the road.

The bad news is that your brakes wear down over time and lose effectiveness, compromising your stopping ability in an emergency. The good news is you can prevent this by getting regular brake inspections and addressing any brake issues promptly.

PARTS OF A BRAKE SYSTEM

Before we talk about brake repairs, let’s discuss the typical components of a vehicle’s braking system:

BRAKE PADS

These components press against the rotors to slow your vehicle. Brake pads do wear down over time and need to be replaced periodically.

ROTORS

The rotors are the metal discs the brake pads press against to slow down your vehicle. Over time, the rotors can become warped or damaged, affecting your braking performance.

CALIPERS

Calipers are the components that hold the brake pads and press them against the rotors. They are responsible for the pressure that slows down your vehicle.

BRAKE LINES

The brake lines are the hoses and pipes that carry brake fluid throughout your vehicle’s braking system. If the brake lines become damaged or corroded, it can lead to brake failure.

MASTER CYLINDER

The master cylinder is the component that generates hydraulic pressure when you apply the brakes. It sends brake fluid through the brake lines to the calipers and pads.

SQUEAKING OR GRINDING NOISE WHEN BRAKING

Brake pads have a metal tab on the backing plate. When you hear a high-pitched squealing or grinding noise, the backing plate is gouging the rotor. This is usually the first indication that the brake pads are low.

​

VIBRATIONS OR PULSATION WHEN BRAKING

may indicate that the rotors are warped or damaged.

​

SOFT OR SPONGY BRAKE PEDAL

There may be air in the brake lines or low brake fluid.

​

BRAKE WARNING LIGHT

If this light comes on, it’s crucial to inspect your brakes as soon as possible.
