Brake Failure Warning Signs |
(1) PULL - The car pulls to one side when the brakes are applied. |
(2) GRAB - "Touchy" brakes grab with the least pedal pressure. |
(3) DRAG - Sticking brakes, hot wheels or an apparent engine power loss are all signs of drag. |
(4) SQUEAL - Excessive squeal, screech, grinding, groaning, chatter, clatter or bang, means your brakes
need serious attention. |
(5) LOW PEDAL - The pedal nearly touches the floorboard before the brakes function |
(6) HARD PEDAL - Extreme foot pressure is required to make the brakes function. |
(7) VIBRATION - The brake pedal, steering wheel, or the entire vehicle shakes, vibrates or pulsates. |
(8) BRAKE WARNING LIGHT - The parking brake is on, or there is a serious drop in hydraulic pressure. |
TWO BASIC BRAKE SYSTEMS : |
Drum Brakes and Disc Brakes are the two basic types of braking systems. Both stop the car by forcing a high friction material against iron drums or discs
attached to the wheels. |
