As a driver, it's important to know when you need to replace your car's brakes to ensure you stay safe and don't get into a collision. There are a few signs that indicate your brakes are worn down and are no longer reliable.
Listen for any squeaking noises you hear when you try to slow down or stop your car. This indicates the brake pads are starting to rub together. You can also perform a visual inspection of the brake pads to determine if they're worn down and no longer appear thick.
It's also common for the car to shake every time you try to slow down. Brake pads that are worn down can also cause the car to take longer to stop, which can lead to accidents. You'll want to have a technician look at the parts to determine if the pads are at the end of their lifespan.
