Every August is Brake Safety Awareness Month, a great time to schedule a service appointment at Honda Van Nuys. If you suspect something is wrong with your brakes or you haven’t checked up on them in a while, our Honda service center staff are ready to help you out. Here are a few things that you should know about your brakes.
Signs Your Honda Brakes Need Service
Parts of your braking system can wear down over time, so you must make the occasional service appointment to ensure everything works correctly. You should also look for some common signs that something is wrong with your brakes. You probably need service if you notice:
- Excessive vibration when you brake
- Your car pulling to one side when you brake
- A soft or “spongy” feeling brake pedal
- Loud noises, like grinding or screeching, when you hit the brakes
If you have any of these problems, schedule an appointment at our service center immediately.
Honda Brake Parts You Should Know
Your braking system comprises several parts that all work together to keep you safer on the road. If you are concerned about brake maintenance, you should know about at least a few of them. Some essential components include:
- Brake hoses or lines
- Rotors
- Brake pads
- Master cylinder
- Brake booster
Of course, it is also vital to ensure you always have enough brake fluid. Our mechanics can help you do that and maintain or replace any of these Honda parts.
