When to Have Your Brakes Serviced

Are you concerned about the condition of your brakes? Don’t worry, there are some simple steps you can take to safely assess the condition of your car’s braking system. Most brake system problems exhibit common issues that can be easy to diagnose. Do you have to use more pedal pressure to stop than you used to? Have you noticed a gradual decrease in stopping power as you have accumulated miles on your vehicle?

Those are both typical symptoms of worn brakes. Thankfully, they generally don’t present an immediate, life-threatening risk to your safety, repairs should take place sooner rather than later. If you experience any of the following symptoms, though, you have a much more serious issue on your hands – one that should be addressed immediately.

  • Your BMW begins to shake or pull to one side while braking
  • A brake warning indicator light has appeared on your dashboard or instrument panel
  • Loss of brake pedal pressure and the pedal goes completely to the floor

If you experience any of the problems listed above, we recommend that you exercise extreme caution and stop driving the vehicle right away. Have it towed to Sewickley BMW so that we can diagnose and repair the problem and make your car safe to drive again.
