When Should I Have My Brakes Repaired?

A good set of brake pads can typically last up to around 40,000-50,000 miles. However, it's a good idea to have them regularly checked every 5,000-10,000 miles, or every six months, to make sure they're in good condition. You can even schedule it around other regular services like oil changes.

Longevity of your brakes and brake pads can also be affected by factors like road conditions, weather, and even different driving styles. Because of this, you may need your brakes serviced sooner or later than expected. For this reason, it's a good idea to know the following signs that you might need your brakes repaired.

1. Poor brake performance. If you feel it's taking longer for your car to stop, or if the brakes feel mushy when applied, it may be time to have them checked out. This is known as brake fade and can be a sign of worn pads, or possibly a leak in your brake fluid.
2. Squeaky or grinding sounds. This is possibly the most common sign that your brakes need service. As your brake pads wear down, they may begin to emit a squealing sound. Once they've worn down enough this may turn into a loud grinding sound, at which point you should have them replaced ASAP.
3. Vehicle pulling while braking. If you find your vehicle pulls to one side or the other when your brakes are applied, they may need to be serviced. This could be a sign of uneven wear on your brake pads, misaligned tires, or possibly debris build-up in your brake fluid.
4. Excessive vibration when braking. Excessive vibration could be a sign that your brake rotors have warped. Brake rotors are what helps press your brake pad against the wheel so your car can stop, and can be warped if worn-out or overheated, causing vibration.
