Brake Warning Signs Drivers Should Not Ignore

A plain-English guide to brake symptoms that may need inspection before brake pad replacement or further diagnosis.

Squealing or grinding noises

Squealing can happen for more than one reason, while grinding may suggest worn components or contact that needs inspection. The vehicle should be checked before parts are confirmed.

Vibration or pulling while braking

Vibration, juddering or pulling can involve pads, discs, tyres, suspension, wheel balance or other factors. A mobile brake inspection can help identify the next step where the location is suitable.

Brake warning light

A brake warning light may relate to brake fluid level, pad wear sensors, ABS or other systems depending on the vehicle. Some warnings may need diagnostic scanning.

What to send for a quotation

Send the registration, postcode, symptoms, which wheel area the noise seems to come from, and whether a warning light is showing.
