Automotive Tips from Auto Lab Livonia: Brake Noise
October 17, 2021
Your brake pads are the important parts that rub against the rotor (or disc) to slow and stop your car when driving in Livonia. They eventually wear down.
When your pads are worn too much, they won’t stop your vehicle as well. When the friction material is worn away, metal parts of the pad are exposed and you’ll hear a squeal or grinding sound.
That’s when Livonia drivers should replace their brake pads at Auto Lab Livonia. Not only will new pads restore your stopping power, but replacing them on time will prevent damage to the rotor.
If your brakes are making noise, ask your Auto Lab Livonia service advisor to inspect your brakes. Addressing problems early will restore your safety and prevent expensive brake damage.
