What are the symptoms of worn brake pads?

Brake pads are in charge of guaranteeing 70% of the braking power, therefore, they are highly sought and can deteriorate over time.When worn out, you will be able to report it quickly as you meet one or more of the following events:

• An extension of the braking distance : braking has lost power, so it requires more time to slow down and immobilize the vehicle completely;
• La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La La brake pedal starts to vibrate : when you press it, you feel it vibrate under your foot.If other parts of the braking system are defective such as the brake fluid for example, the pedal can be completely soft;
• Road keeping is less good : when you move, you will feel your vehicle sinking when you brake whatever the importance of braking;
• The brakes are blocked : braking will become difficult whatever your speed where the road type on which you roll;
• The brake light is on : on the most modern vehicles, a brake light is present.It is orange color and has the shape of a circle surrounded by dotted;
• Worrisome noises are emitted : when the brake pedal is actuated, you can hear squeezes or cries from the brake pads.

What is the life of the brake pads?

The frequency of change of brake pads will vary from vehicle to vehicle.This periodicity is available in maintenance note of the car that contains all the manufacturer's preconizations.On average, they have a lifetime of 10,000 to 20,000 kilometres.Depending on the type of brakes your vehicle will need to change 2 if you have drum brakes on one of the axles or 4 if you have brake discs on each wheel.

However, if you observe unusual signs from your braking system and especially from the pads, you will need to change them immediately.It is the same when you perform the replacement of your brake discs, platelets must be automatically replaced.Indeed, as they come in friction with the discs, they must be perfectly smooth when the discs are new.

What are the risks of driving with HS brake pads?

If you have become aware that your brake pads are in bad shape but you continue to roll with them, you take significant risks such as:

• The deterioration of brake discs : as the brake pads are in friction with the discs, they protect them from heat.If the brake discs are ineffective, the brake discs will be used significantly over the use and the garage operator’s invoice will be much higher as you will need to change the discs and brake pads;
• The total brake system failure : if you use your brake pads until they are completely HS, the entire braking system will be unbalanced and there are great risks that your brakes will no longer work much or more at all.This case is extremely dangerous because you no longer control your vehicle;
• An accident : when your brakes are no longer working, you represent a danger to your vehicle's passengers and other road users.Without brake control, you can no longer manage the vehicle speed or its immobilization and the risk of accidents is very high.
