Brake pads and discs
Your brakes are the most important safety system on your car or van. At Xtreme Tyres in Worthing we check and replace brake pads and brake discs for all makes and models.
Signs that your brakes need attention
- A grinding or squealing noise when you brake
- Your car pulls to one side when you brake
- A soft or spongy brake pedal
- A vibration through the brake pedal or the steering wheel
- A brake warning light on your dashboard
- Your car takes longer to stop than it did before
If you notice any of these signs, call us or bring your car or van in to our Worthing garage.
What wears, and why it matters
- Brake pads press on the discs to slow the car. They wear down each time you brake, and a pad that is worn through damages the disc.
- Brake discs wear thinner and can warp or score. A worn disc gives a longer stopping distance and a vibration when you brake.
