Common Signs Your Brakes Need Attention

Squealing or Screeching Brakes

Brake pads contain wear indicators that produce a high-pitched noise when they’re approaching replacement.

Grinding Noise

Grinding often indicates the brake pads have completely worn away and metal is contacting the brake disc.

Vibration When Braking

A vibrating steering wheel or brake pedal may suggest warped brake discs.

Brake Warning Light

Dashboard warning lights should always be investigated as soon as possible.

Soft or Spongy Brake Pedal

This may indicate air in the braking system or deteriorated brake fluid.

Vehicle Pulls to One Side

Uneven braking could indicate sticking calipers or uneven brake wear.

FAQs

Most brake pads last between 20,000 and 40,000 miles depending on driving style and conditions.

Not always. However, if the discs are worn beyond specification or damaged, replacing both together provides the best braking performance.

Signs include vibration, scoring, excessive wear or measurements below the manufacturer’s minimum thickness.

Yes. Excessively worn pads, damaged discs, leaking brake components or poor braking performance can all result in an MOT failure.

This commonly indicates worn brake pads, although contamination or poor-quality friction material can also cause noise.

Usually warped brake discs, although worn suspension components can also contribute.

Typically every two years, although always follow your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations.

It’s strongly recommended to have the vehicle inspected immediately, as braking performance may be compromised.
