Seven Point Brake Checklist for You to Perform

In between a professional brake inspection, you should always be keeping an eye on your brakes yourself. If you notice any signs of reduced brake capacity, call Tweed 4×4 for an expert brake inspection. Here’s what to look for;

• Your car pulls to the left or right after braking
• The brake pedal feels sloppy or soft
• After pressing the brake pedal there is a shudder through the steering wheel
• High pitched noises or squeals when you brake
• The warning light flashes on the brake system
• After pressing the brake pedal it takes longer than normal for the car to slow
