3 Signs Your Car Brakes Are Failing
Problems with your brakes can become a major hazard. If your car is experiencing any of the following brake problems, or your brakes just don’t feel right to you, bring your car to your local Tires Plus for a brake inspection. Here are the top three signs of common brake problems:

- You don’t feel comfortable with the time it takes your vehicle to stop
2. Issues with Your Brake Fluid
- Your vehicle is actively leaking brake fluid
- Your brake light is on, indicating low brake fluid
- Tip: See if your vehicle manufacturer’s recommends a brake fluid change and schedule to avoid costly repairs
3. Strange Noises and Shaky Brakes
- Loud, high-pitched squeaking or squealing noises when you brake
- Even worse, grinding noises when you brake and shaking
- Tip: Don’t overlook brake pad replacements, the longer you wait the more likely you‘ll have serious damage to your brake rotors and vehicle

How Often Do I Need To Get My Car Brakes Checked?
Regularly checking your brakes keeps you safe on the road. You never want to be in a situation where your brakes are seriously malfunctioning. Early detection will save you from trouble in the future. Our recommendation is that you schedule a brake inspection every year. Key parts like brake pads, brake rotors, and brake fluid need to be replaced at different intervals, so a yearly inspection will help you plan for future replacements and services.
Why Does My Car Shake When I Brake?
If you notice your car shakes whenever you brake, you most likely have a problem with your brake rotors. The shaking is an indication that there is an issue with your vehicle’s brake rotors and they may need to be resurfaced or even replaced. When you see the signs of brake problems, schedule an appointment with Tires Plus to get your brakes fully inspected for repair.
