Your vehicle’s braking system is the most important safety system that you have. There are a number of warning signals to let you know your brake system is in need of an inspection or repair, none of which can be taken lightly. Here are a few warning signs to watch for:

• Screeching or scrubbing noise when you apply the brake pedal
• Screeching or scrubbing noise coming from the wheel area when vehicle is in motion and brakes are not applied
• A pulsation in your steering wheel or brake pedal when applying your brakes
• Longer than normal stopping distances
• Weak brake pedal
• Hard brake pedal
• Parking Brake has little or no tension
• Having to pump the brake pedal to create firm pressure on the pedal

We want you to be safe. Keeping your vehicle’s braking system well maintained and in optimum working condition is one of the most important things you can do as a vehicle owner. If you have any concerns about how your vehicle’s braking system is operating, feel free to bring in your car, truck or SUV for a FREE complete brake system inspection.
