Squeaky Brakes: If you find your brakes are squeaking as you come to a stop, it’s worthwhile to investigate the cause. Often, this indicates a failing part in your brake system, but sometimes can simply be the result of dirty brakes! Inspect brake rotors for any indications of unusual wear.
Soft Brake Pedal: When pushing down your pedal to come to a stop, does your car decelerate as soon as you touch the pedal, or do you have to push it far down to come to a stop? If your brakes feel vague, ‘soft’, or ‘spongy’, this is a strong indication that you need to replace or service your brake system.
