Why Do My Brakes Squeak?

Brakes are the most important part of a vehicle for both safety and performance. As braking technology improves, they can function better and last longer than ever before.
However, sometimes when braking, you can hear a “squeak.” Brake “Squeak” has always been a problem and can be caused by several different things. Here are the most common causes of brake squeak:

1. Brake pads are getting low
2. Worn rotors
3. Lack of backing plate lubricant
4. Uneven pad ware

We always recommend scheduling an appointment to inspect the brake system to determine the source of the noise and find a solution. While the issue could be minor, ensuring a properly functioning braking system should be a top priority. At Eurotechnik, we offer complimentary Quality Checks to our customers who are in for their regular service where we measure your brake pad wear. Call us today.
