Knowing the Signs of Brake Wear

Your engine is the most complex component in your vehicle, and the expertly trained technicians at Dewey Ford are fully qualified to make sure yours is running at its best. Your vehicle's braking system can bring thousands of pounds of metal and plastic to a stop hundreds of times before you get to work. It goes without saying that these pieces wear out, but they do so slowly, meaning you may not notice they need attention until it's too late. Neglecting your braking system can lead to increased repair costs, or worse, no brakes at all. Fortunately, paying attention to some of the signs of brake wear can keep you on top of stopping maintenance, saving you some money and keeping your car safe.

The most obvious indicator that your vehicle's brakes need attention is an incredibly high pitched squeal when you come to a stop. Brake pad manufacturers include a little piece of metal called an indicator on the pad itself. When the material wears down to the point where less than ¼ inch is left, the metal piece begins to touch the vehicle's rotor. If it takes you longer to stop than it used to, or if your brake pedal travels farther than it did a few months ago, it is a good idea to get your brakes checked.
