Why does my car shake or vibrate when I brake?
Shaking or vibration when you brake is most often caused by warped or unevenly worn rotors, which prevent the brake pads from gripping smoothly.
You'll usually feel it through the steering wheel or brake pedal, and it tends to get worse the longer it's left. Bring your vehicle to A Street Automotive in Auburn and we'll check your rotors and brakes to find the source of the vibration and get you stopping smoothly again.
My brake pedal feels soft or sinks to the floor. Is that dangerous?
Yes, a soft or sinking brake pedal should be treated as urgent, because it usually means there's air in the brake lines or a fluid leak affecting your ability to stop.
Your brakes rely on steady hydraulic pressure, and when that pressure drops, stopping distance increases fast. Don't wait on this one, have your vehicle looked at by the expert
team at A Street Automotive right away so we can find and fix the cause before it becomes a safety risk.
Do my brakes just need pads, or do the rotors and fluid need service too?
It depends on how worn your braking system is, which is why a proper inspection comes first.
Pads wear fastest and are often all that's needed, but rotors and brake fluid also wear over time and may need attention to keep your brakes performing safely. When you visit A Street Automotive, we'll inspect the full system and explain exactly what your brakes need and what can wait, so call us at (253) 833-1000 to get started.
