Reliable Brake Services for Safer Driving
A car's brake system uses hydraulics to slow or stop the vehicle by converting hydraulic pressure into mechanical force. A cross-section view of a car's disc brake system, showing a large, round, flat "brake rotor" sometimes with a series of grooves or vanes on its surface, and a "brake caliper" clamped onto the rotor, where the brake pads would be situated between the caliper and the rotor, illustrating how the caliper squeezes the pads against the rotor to create friction and slow the wheel down when pressure is applied to the brake pedal.
- Brake pedal
When the driver presses the brake pedal, a piston in the master cylinder is activated. - Master cylinder
The master cylinder sends hydraulic pressure to the brake calipers at each wheel. - Brake calipers
When the brake calipers are activated, the disc pads compress against the brake discs or rotors. - Brake pads
When brake pads are activated, they squeeze against the brake rotor.
The braking process creates friction that stops the wheels from turning, which causes the brake pads to wear down over time.
Signs That Brake Parts Are Wearing Down Include:
- Vibrations or pulsing in the steering wheel
- Having to press the brake pedal down hard to stop
- Loud noises
- Screeching, grinding, or squealing
- Car pulling to one side
- Brake light coming on
