Warning Signs

PULL – Vehicle pulls to one side when brakes are applied. This can happen for a few reasons. The most common is from misadjusted brakes or brakes in need of replacement. HARD PEDAL – Requires extreme pressure to make brakes function. Can indicate power brake trouble, restricted hydraulic lines, frozen calipers or wheel cylinders. BRAKE LIGHTS – Red indicates a problem as simple as the parking brake on, or low fluid, to something as serious as a hydraulic system failure. Yellow indicates deactivation of your ABS system. While your brakes should work, it does require inspection at the first opportunity. VIBRATION – Brake pedal, steering wheel or entire vehicle shakes, vibrates or pulsates when brake is applied. May indicate worn or damaged disc brake rotors – or a serious problem of a loose component or faulty steering mechanism. SQUEAL – Brakes should operate with a minimal amount of noise. Some noise is normal but excessive squeal, screech, grinding, groaning, chatter, clatter or bang means your brakes need servicing. LOW PEDAL – Pedal nearly touches floorboard before brakes function. May activate your brake warning light. Problem may require a simple adjustment – or indicate something much more serious. If you are experiencing any of the above brake symptoms don’t wait until it’s too late. Call into Victory Auto Repairs today for your free brake check.
