One of the most crucial safety mechanisms installed in a car is the braking system; brake pads, in particular, are a vital element. Brake pads work hand in hand with other parts of the braking system to ensure your cars safe and steady deceleration.
Maintaining your brake pads.
Like all other mechanical accessories, some factors may hinder your brake pads effective performance, some of which are: Faulty master cylinder, which makes braking seem like a task as it needs a large amount of effort to push the brake pedal. Moreover, the leaking of oil or brake fluid into the brake pads causes the car to lean in one direction during braking, which is unsafe. In addition to that, overheated brake pad linings also tend to lower the cars braking capabilities quite significantly. Besides that, wrongly fitted brake pads will produce an irritating screeching sound each time you brake. Visit us Smythe Volvo Cars to have your brake pads inspected today.
