Anti-Lock Brakes: Enhancing Safety
Brakes are crucial for vehicle safety, and regular inspections are essential to protect both you and your passengers. It's important to be aware that squeaking isn't the sole indicator of brake issues. Other signs can include grinding noises, vibrations during braking, a spongy brake pedal, or the vehicle pulling to one side while braking. Regular brake checks can help identify excessive or uneven pad wear, worn rotors, or even dark contaminated brake fluid, ensuring your vehicle maintains optimal braking performance. If you notice any of these symptoms, bring your vehicle in promptly for an inspection.
