Your brake pads are the essential parts that rub against the rotor (or disc) to slow and stop your car. They eventually wear down.
When your pads are worn too much, they won’t stop your vehicle as well. When the friction material is worn away, metal parts of the pad are exposed and you’ll hear a squeal or grinding sound.
That’s when Fort Wayne drivers should replace their brake pads. Not only will new pads restore your stopping power, but replacing them on time will prevent damage to the rotor.
If your brakes are making noise, ask your Tuffy Fort Wayne - Dupont Rd. service professional to review your brakes. Addressing problems early will restore your safety and prevent pricey brake damage.
