Signs You Need Brake Repair

  1. Loud screeching- if this sound becomes regular, call your local mechanic right away to schedule a brake repair service. This could indicate a problem with your brake pads and become very dangerous.
  2. Brake Light- get your brakes inspected if the brake light turns on.
  3. Fading- if you have to push harder than usual to brake, there might be a leak in your brake system. Check for a small puddle of brake fluid under your car to see if it is leaking.
  4. Pulling- if your vehicle starts to pull to one side while you brake, then it is a sign that your brake linings are wearing unevenly. Your car might just need the brakes adjusted.
  5. Grinding- this sound can indicate your brake pads are wearing down. This can be very dangerous if overlooked. If you notice these sounds take your vehicle to your local mechanic and have your brakes repaired. 
  6. Vibration- if your vehicle feels like it is vibrating or pulsating then it might mean that your vehicle is out of alignment or that you have warped rotors. Both are signs that you need your brakes checked out.

Brake Inspection Glen Ellyn

Brake problems may start off small, but can be very serious if they are not taken care of. When a mechanic inspects your brakes, they check brake pads, discs, and brake lines. After they finish the inspection they can make the appropriate repair suggestions. You should get your brakes inspected every 12,000 miles. If you drive a lot, you might want to get them checked out sooner than the suggested 12,000 miles. If you need your brakes repaired, stop by Auto Advantage of Addison today!

I had some recall work on my car the dealership said I needed new front brake pads and rotors. I told them I would bring the car in next week.
I took it to Auto Advantage and had them look at the car and all I needed was brake pads. They also found that I needed new wheel bearings on my driver’s side back wheel, the dealership missed this. If I did not bring it to Auto Advantage I would not have known it needed to be fixed. Great Service and fair you will not be disappointed.
