Having brakes that you can rely on time after time is often something that gets overlooked or taken for granted. Your brakes have a lot of working parts that help the system operate effectively. Calipers squeeze your rotors that are attached to your wheels. Friction and heat causes the motion to stop, and brake pads help work in between these two parts to absorb a lot of the wear. When it comes to brake issues, you’ll likely be able to tell with the way it feels to stop. If something seems off, get the system looked at.
