Safe travel around Yakima requires good brakes. How do you know when your Subaru needs brake work from the McCurley Subaru of Yakima service center? Here are a few signs.
#1 You Hear a Squealing or Screeching Noise
Do you notice a screeching or squealing noise whenever you apply the brakes? If so, this is a sure sign that your pads are wearing thin. If insufficient material remains, you risk damaging your rotors, too.
#2. It's Hard to Apply the Brakes
When braking components wear down, it becomes increasingly difficult to apply the brakes. You may feel like you are pushing the brake pedal almost all the way to the floor whenever you come to a red light or stop sign around Ellensburg. In some cases, you could even need to pump your brakes repeatedly to stop. If you're experiencing anything described here, it's imperative to your safety that you schedule a brake service appointment.
#3. You Are Losing Brake Fluid
It's important to check brake fluid levels on your Subaru vehicle regularly. If you constantly need to add more fluid (or notice puddles of it underneath your vehicle), this is a sure sign of a leak that our Prosser area service center should address.
#4. Your Brakes "Grab" or Pull
If it feels like your brakes are grabbing or pulling when you apply pressure, this could indicate a problem with your calipers. This is dangerous for you and other drivers on the roads of Wenatchee. If not addressed, it could result in excessive wear and tear on your vehicle's suspension system over time.
