BRAKES FAQ

HOW DO I KNOW IF I NEED MY BRAKES FIXED?
Whistling noises, chirping sounds, and grinding are indications that brake service is required. Here are some causes of brake pedal pulsation and/or noise:
  • Worn brake pads
  • Heat-cracked or worn rotors
  • Loose-fitting brake pads in the caliper
  • Missing or damaged noise insulators
  • Uneven torque of lug nuts or caliper hardware
According to manufacturers, brake pads generally last between 50,000 km and 115,000 km. There are a lot of factors that go in to brake ware, such as how heavy and often the brake is applied. City vehicles will wear their brakes faster than someone who does lots of highway travel. At Subaru of Lethbridge we will recommend changing your brakes if we believe your safety is at risk.
