Worn Out Rotors

Maintaining the Brakes SystemProper care of Brakes System

Does your car brake not work as efficiently as it should? Do you need to apply more pressure than usual? Faulty or worn out rotor surface could be the reason why your car doesn’t stop as fast as it should. Rotor surface can get warped or damaged due to heat. It that case, it causes a pulsating pedal. In case it is overheated, the pedal will fail to make a grip on it. So, the rotor has a lot to do with inefficient brakes.

Leaks

You may have ignored leaks but you must know that it is not worth ignoring as it indicates an issue with the hydraulic. If the brake line is leaky, you will lose the brake fluid, which can also lead to total brake failure. The clearest symptoms are puddles of fluid on the ground below your car, and the brake pedal running to the floor. Make sure you get it checked. Add this kind of check to yourmaintenance tips list, and you will thank yourself.

Overheated brakes are a result of burnt brake pads. Leakage of a fluid that doesn’t belong in thebrakes system can also cause overheated brakes. Just in case it’s your axle seals that have seeped into the system, both, the rotors and the brake pads will be ruined.
