Your brake pads are the essential parts that rub against the rotor (or disc) to slow and stop your vehicle. They eventually wear down.
When your pads are worn too much, they won’t stop your vehicle as well. When the friction material is worn away, metal parts of the pad are exposed and you’ll hear a squeal or grinding sound.
That’s when Oswego auto owners should replace their brake pads. Not only will new pads restore your stopping power, but replacing them on time will prevent damage to the rotor.
If your brakes are making noise, ask your Tuffy Tire & Auto Service Oswego service professional to check your brakes. Addressing troubles early will restore your safety and prevent pricey brake damage.
