We worry about our cars starting and the speed at which they can go. But it is as important to think about how cars will stop. Halting the car at the right time is probably the most important part of driving. Your brakes do this most important work.
Checking your brakes on a regular basis will not only keep the car running safely but also help to keep you and those around you safe. If you hear any sound, like a squeal or a grinding noise when you apply the brakes, it is time for a visit to us at Pellegrino Auto Sales in Batavia, NY.
It is a safe rule of thumb to get the brakes serviced at least once a year or at every 12,000 miles. Here are some easy tips that indicate you need to visit our dealership for a brake checkup:
The brake pedal appears to be spongy or goes much deeper than usual.
When you apply the brakes, your vehicle pulls in either direction instead of stopping straight ahead.
Any unusual noise or vibration during braking.
If in doubt, come and see us.
