How Can I Tell if My Car Brakes Need Checking?

There are several tell-tale signs to watch out for when applying your brakes. Here are some examples below:
Pulling
Your vehicle pulling side to side when applying the brakes indicates a mechanical issue in the brake system.
Squeaking
If you hear sharp squeaking noises from the brakes, this could suggest several potential issues relating to the disc, pad and calliper and is an indication that your brakes need attention.
Grinding
Normally, it is an indication that the brake pads have become heavily worn resulting in a grinding noise when the brakes are applied. Eventually, this will cause damage to the brake disc and calliper if left unaddressed.
Dashboard Light
If the brake warning light appears on your dashboard, then your ECU will have detected a fault within the brakes. A common cause of this is low brake fluid level or a leak; it is essential not to ignore warning lights as they are often simple to-repair solutions that can turn into expensive ones.
Soft/Spongy Brake Pedal
Unresponsive and spongy brakes usually mean there are issues with the brake fluid flowing through the brake systems effectively. A brake pedal that goes all the way to the floor indicates a severe problem and requires immediate attention.
