Since August is National Brake Safety Awareness Month, we’re taking a moment to highlight the importance of keeping up with Acura brake service. Your entire brake system needs to be inspected at least twice per year to ensure that all components are in good condition. If it’s been a while since your last appointment, come see the friendly experts at MotorWorld Acura.
Why You Should Never Put Off Brake Maintenance and Repair
Routine brake maintenance and repair help prevent accidents, thus protecting you, your passengers, and other drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists on the road. When brake components like rotors, pads, or shoes are worn down—or if your brake fluid needs to be refilled—your vehicle won’t decelerate and stop as quickly as it should, which increases the risk of collision. As long as you bring your vehicle to certified Acura technicians like the team in our service center, you’ll get unmatched service and genuine OEM components that come with a warranty you can trust.
Signs You Need Brake Maintenance and Repair
Not all drivers know the symptoms that they need brake maintenance and repair. Here are some telltale signs:
- Screeching or grinding sound when decelerating
- A burning smell when you slow down
- A soft or spongy brake pedal
- Difficulty decelerating or stopping
If you notice any of these issues, call our dealership right away. They could mean a major brake issue, and therefore a safety hazard. In extreme cases, we may recommend having the car towed instead of driven to the appointment.
