Brakes

Without reliable brakes, your vehicle is not only unsafe for you but also for others on the road. These are a few signs that you need brake repair, or perhaps even new Dodge parts for your braking system, at Sansone Chrysler Jeep® Dodge RAM.

1.      Your Vehicle Vibrates When Braking

Do you feel a vibrating sensation when you apply your brakes? Does your steering wheel shake when you stop? If so, you may have an issue with your rotors.

2.      Your Brake Light is On

There are many warning lights on your dashboard. If your brake light is on, that means that you have an issue with your brake system. Make sure you have your vehicle inspected to discover what is going on.

3.      Your Brakes are Squeaky

Do you hear a high-pitched squeal when you come to a stop? If so, it’s likely that your brake pads have worn thin. They are designed to produce a high-pitched warning signal when it’s time to replace them.

4.      Your Brake Pedal Isn’t As Responsive

Does your brake pedal feel soft or spongy? Do you feel like it takes so much more pressure to produce a result? Your brake pedal is designed to work without touching the floor, so if it isn’t as responsive as it used to be, it’s time for brake repairs.

5.      Your Car is Leaking

A lot of these previously mentioned signals can also be the result of a brake fluid leak. If you notice fluid underneath your car that is yellow or brown, your vehicle may have a brake fluid leak and you’ll need to bring it into our service center.
