Take a Break to Learn about Brakes

A lot of Miami drivers come to us with worn, faulty, or just plain broken brakes, so we thought we'd take a few minutes to write about some of the most common problems we see and how you can tell when your brakes are on the brink of trouble.

Brake Warning Signs

Keep an eye (or ear) out for:

  • Screeching & Squeaking
  • Decreased Performance (vehicle not stopping as quickly)
  • Brake Dashboard Warning Light Appears

Some drivers put off brake repairs for fear of cost ("not another expense"), but catching a problem early is better than catching an expensive one late. There's also some good news when it comes to all those annoying brake screeches. A lot of time, the problem is simple for us to fix.

Common Problems We See

Brakes malfunction for many reasons. The good news is that sometimes your brakes aren't even broken - it's just the weather. Here are some of the most common problems we see in Miami:

  • Weather-Related Brake Noise
  • Worn Brake Pads
  • Collapsed Hose or Uneven Brake Pads (can cause pulling)
  • Warped Rotors

Brakes are one of our automotive repair specialties at Perez Autoworks. Since we see brake problems a lot, we're quite adept at identifying and fixing them (which cuts on work time, saving you money).

No matter what you do, don't forgo needed brake repairs. No one wants an accident down the road due to their vehicle not stopping. If you'd like to know more about your braking system, we invite you to contact us or read our new brake repair page (under "Auto Repairs" in our menu).

Thank you for taking the time to read, and keep driving safe.
