Frequently Asked Questions

What does squealing brakes mean?

Usually a wear indicator tab touching the rotor — pads nearly worn. Can also be brake dust or glazed pads from infrequent use.

What does grinding brakes mean?

Grinding may point to metal-to-metal contact, worn pads, rotor damage, debris, or another brake issue. Treat grinding seriously and have the vehicle inspected before continuing to drive.

What causes clicking or clunking from brakes?

Clicking or clunking can come from loose hardware, debris, worn components, or another brake issue. A technician should inspect the vehicle before confirming the cause.

Should I drive with brake noise?

Squealing — schedule service soon. Grinding — do not delay. Continued driving may increase rotor damage or make the repair more expensive.
