Common brake problems Wheeler Automotives encounter

If you notice your brake pedal sinking lower than it once did, or even reaching the floor, it's a clear indication that there's a loss of pressure within your braking system. This issue could stem from several sources, including compromised brake lines, a faulty master cylinder, or defective wheel cylinders.

The brake pedal feels somewhat "spongy" underfoot, which is typically indicative of air bubbles trapped within the brake lines. To address this issue, a thorough inspection of the brake lines for any leaks is necessary, followed by a complete drainage and refilling of the brake fluid.

If you're finding it difficult to depress the brake pedal, it's likely that there's an issue with your vehicle's power brake booster. This crucial component is engineered to amplify the pressure you exert on the brake pedal, ensuring sufficient force is applied to bring the car to a halt.

When your brakes emit a high-pitched squeal, particularly during abrupt stops, it could indicate several underlying issues, with worn brake pads being a common culprit. Brake pads function by pressing against the wheels, utilising friction to halt the vehicle. This same friction, however, causes the brake pads to gradually degrade and require replacement over time.

When you apply the brakes and feel the steering wheel vibrate, it is likely an indication that the front brake rotors or the rear brake drums are unevenly worn or warped. To address this issue, these components might need to be resurfaced to restore their original shape or, in certain situations, replaced entirely.

You should never take any risks when it comes to the safety of yourself, your passengers or other users of the road. If you have any doubts whatsoever about your brake system bring your vehicle into Wheeler Automotives in Maddington and let us make sure your brakes are up to the task of protecting you.

Let Wheeler Automotives help ensure the safety of your vehicle. After all, just what is stopping you...
