The last thing you need is to be neglecting the brakes on your vehicle, only to find they are gone when you need them in an emergency. At Basil Ford of Niagara Falls, you can schedule a brake checkup at your convenience.
It might be time for a brake check-up if:
?
- The vehicle rumbles up and down when you hit the brake pedal while traveling at high speed.
- There appears to be a strong burning smell coming from the brake area while driving.
- There is a soft and spongy brake pedal.
- The brake hardware and hoses have brake fluid leaking from these areas.
- While braking, the car begins to wobble and vibrate.
- After hitting the brakes, there is a strong grinding and squealing sound.
- The brake indicator light on the car's dashboard now stays lit while the car is driving.
