Taking proper care of your brakes can keep you safer on the road, so make sure that you're aware of the signs that you may need brake repairs or new Acura parts. If you notice any of these issues you need to schedule a service appointment at Hall Acura Virginia Beach.
1. Soft Brake Pedal
If you press down on your brake pedal and it feels soft or “spongy” there could be an issue with your brakes and how pressure is being applied.
2. Odd Noises
It's never wise to ignore strange sounds from your vehicle, so it's probably no surprise that hearing any odd noises when you use your brakes should be a cause for concern. Look out for grinding, squealing, and screeching noises in particular.
3. Pulling to One Side
Sometimes a problem with your brakes can cause your car to pull to one side when you press down on the pedal. If you notice your car pulling to one side or the other, it's time to schedule a service appointment.
4. Excess Vibration
You shouldn't feel like the brake pedal is vibrating your entire body when you need to slow your car down. Excess vibration can be caused by an issue with your braking system, so visit our mechanics and get this problem addressed as soon as you can.
5. Leaking Fluid
If your car leaves behind puddles in your car or driveway, you need to figure out what kind of fluid is leaking from your vehicle. It could be brake fluid, and getting low on that could affect the responsiveness of your brakes and put you in danger.
