Common Vehicle Brake Issues
If you’re experiencing any of these brake problems, it’s time to visit OK Tire Rutland for professional vehicle brake service:
- Squeaking or Grinding Noises: Worn-out brake pads can cause high-pitched squeaking, while grinding noises may indicate metal-on-metal contact.
- Soft or Spongy Brake Pedal: If your brake pedal feels unusually soft or takes longer to stop the vehicle, there may be air in the brake lines or an issue with the brake fluid.
- Vibrations or Pulsations: Warped brake rotors can cause vibrations in the steering wheel or brake pedal when braking.
- Car Pulling to One Side: Uneven brake pad wear or a stuck caliper may cause your car to pull left or right when you brake.

Signs You Need a Brake Inspection or Service

- Brake Pedal Feels Hard or Stiff: If pressing the brake pedal requires excessive force, there may be an issue with the brake booster or master cylinder.
