The appearance of these four "symptoms" in the car indicates that there is a problem with the braking system, and timely maintenance should be carried out
The vast majority of people are not very familiar with cars, and they don't know how to maintain them after buying them home. They even don't know what some of the features are for. In fact, it is indeed a bit difficult to use a car, especially in controlling some details, which many car owners are prone to overlook. For example, when the weather is good, wipers lie quietly under the windshield, which is easy to overlook and car owners do not maintain them much. However, if there is a malfunction, it is basically difficult to move on rainy days. So, even for some inconspicuous components, it is important to take care of them during maintenance, so that they can be used with ease.
Of course, there are many things to pay attention to when it comes to car maintenance. For example, some cleaning maintenance tasks are completely unnecessary, such as engine cleaning, oil duct cleaning, and even air conditioning cleaning, which is a waste of money. In addition, maintenance related to the brake system cannot be ignored, as it will greatly affect driving safety. If there are problems, the consequences may be more serious. Therefore, in this issue, we will talk about the four "symptoms" that appear in the car, indicating that there is a problem with the braking system. Timely maintenance should be carried out to understand.
The first symptom is that the car deviates when the brakes are applied. There are multiple possibilities for this situation. On the one hand, there may be different specifications of brake pads on both sides of the wheel, which means different friction coefficients. In addition, it may also be due to oil leakage from the brake cylinder on one side, resulting in a decrease in the braking performance on that side. Another situation is that there is excess air in the braking system, especially when air accumulates on one side, which can also cause a deviation in the braking effect on both sides. Regardless of the above reasons, if the car deviates when the brake is applied, it is necessary to go to the repair shop for maintenance in a timely manner.
The second "symptom" is also quite common, which is the abnormal sound when pressing the brake. Although the abnormal brake noise does not attract the attention of car owners, many people believe it is normal, but it depends on what is causing it. Many cases are due to abnormal wear of the brake pads and discs, or the use of poor quality brake pads. Regardless of the situation, if there is a strange noise when pressing the brake, you should go to the 4S store for maintenance as soon as possible to see which aspect of the problem is causing and reduce safety hazards.
The third "symptom" is that the foot feels soft and weak when pressing the brake, which makes people lack confidence. Of course, this situation is obviously due to a problem with the brake system, such as excessive wear on the brake pads, exceeding the service life, or a serious shortage of brake oil, or the inclusion of excess water inside. Once there is a feeling of weakness when stepping on the brakes, it goes without saying that the car must be promptly taken to a 4S store for maintenance, as the performance of the brakes directly affects driving safety.
The last 'symptom' that many car owners have experienced is a noticeable shaking of the car when the brakes are applied. A large part of the reason for such a situation is due to deformation or excessive wear of the brake disc, and the most direct solution is to replace the brake disc. Of course, it is also possible that the wheel hub is deformed, such as a deviation caused by some impact. Therefore, it is not only necessary to check the brake disc, but also to pay attention to the condition of the wheel hub
