There are several things that can indicate an issue with your brakes such as;

• Grinding noise when braking – this can indicate wear & tear
• Sometimes it can also signify small stones or debris or stones stuck between the pads & discs although rare.
• Shock absorbers making a high-pitched squealing sound under braking.
• The pedal having to be pushed much harder or further to get the car to slow down.
• The car pulling to one side or another when braking.

If you notice any of these then you need to get a specialist brake technician to took at them for you urgently.

Vehicle braking systems are pretty complicated so we recommend regular checks to keep you safe.

Modern vehicles often have anti-lock brakes where sensors know when a vehicle wheel has stopped (locked up) and then releases the pressure before braking again, it does this very rapidly so helps to sow down the vehicle quickly and safely as it allows a measure of control whilst making an emergency stop.
