An Overview of Braking

Even though it’s easy to take your ability to stop for granted when you press the brake pedal, several scientific principles exist at work. You’re able to stop because of hydraulics and friction. When you apply force to the pedal, brake fluid goes from the master cylinder through brake lines. It arrives at the wheel cylinders, which can be employed to move the brake calipers. Those are the components that hold the brake pads. As the pads are forced against the rotors/discs, friction stops your vehicle. (If you have an older model with drum brakes or have a newer car with drum brakes on the rear wheels, brake shoes are forced against the turning drums inside the wheels.) You should periodically bring your vehicle in for a brake inspection and service. However, if you notice the potential signs of brake trouble, schedule a visit sooner. These include several warning signals. For instance, you may see that the ABS light has come on. Also, you may hear strange noises such as squealing or grinding. Vibration or pulling to the side during braking can also give you a clue. (Be aware that these can also indicate other problems, so we’ll need to check your automobile to be sure.)
