Every time a driver engages a car's brakes, the various components suffer some level of wear. Pads, rotors, calipers, and other brake system parts experience friction, and friction slowly degrades parts. Long before the brakes wear out on a Chrysler, Dodge, or Jeep, a driver may take his car, truck, or SUV to Bob Allen Chrysler Dodge Jeep FIAT in Danville for routine service.
A complete brake inspection involves removing the tires to take a closer look at all the parts. Usually, a brake inspection takes place when Nicholasville area drivers get their tires rotated since they come off the wheels during that service. Once every six months is the expected duration for tire rotations and brake inspections but requesting brake inspections proves wise when there are any signs of brake performance issues. Squealing and screeching sounds could mean the brake pads are worn. A brake pedal that must go all the way to the floor to stop the vehicle is another bad sign.
Check the owner's manual for mileage and monthly suggestions for full brake inspections. Perhaps requesting a visual inspection ahead of schedule during an oil change is helpful, too.
A complete brake system replacement may be necessary if the wear-and-tear reaches a certain point. Repairs and refurbishments might be possible, depending on the brakes' condition. Ultimately, a Lebanon, KY technician could make the call after looking closely at the parts
Brake lines may leak fluid, a potential disaster for anyone driving in Lexington. A technician could check for leaks while examining the condition of hoses and lines. All drivers should be in the habit of looking for any fluid leaks when parked on the streets of Danville.
