There are a couple of signs you can keep an eye (or ear) out for when you’re driving that will let you know your brakes might need to be repaired.
One of the easier-to-catch signs is the brake warning light on your dashboard. The brake warning light tells you there is a malfunction somewhere in the brake system that might need to be repaired. Bring it in to your technician as soon as you can.
A sign your brakes might need to be repaired that you can hear is a screeching, grinding, or rubbing noise when you brake. These noises can be a sign that your brake pads are worn or that there is damage to part of the brake system.
