When Do I Need To Get My Brakes Serviced?

Your brakes are the single most important part of your car after your engine, if you want to drive safely and keep out of accidents. But how would you know when it is time to get your brakes serviced? Some technicians and mechanics say you should get your brake pads replaced every 20,000 or 60,000 miles, depending on how often you drive and how harshly you brake. If you live in a hilly area with inclines and declines or in a city with a lot of stop-and-go traffic, you should have your brakes checked more often and replaced if needed. When's the last time you had your brakes checked?

At the same time, you should always look for the warning signs of failing brakes regardless of the number of miles you've driven.

• Does it take you longer to stop, or are you having to press the brake pedal harder?
• Are your brakes squeaking and making some other unusual noise?
• When you brake, does your car pull to one side?
• Do you see potential brake fluid leaks near the four corners of your car?
• Has your brake warning light come on?

If you experience any of these problems, come to our Hyundai service center in Butler, PA so we can check your brakes and keep you safe.
