As a driver, you need to keep up with the general maintenance of your car. One very important part of your vehicle that needs frequent checks and servicing is the braking system. Brake rotors are an essential part of this system and they work with brake pads to help bring your vehicle to a standstill.
When the rotors stop doing the work they were designed for, it can put you in an unsafe situation. Let's discuss what brake rotors are and how one can deal with the failure of this car part.
Brake rotors also referred to as brake discs are round metal parts fixed to each wheel of the car. When you step on the brake pedal, the brake pads squeeze the rotors causing friction that decelerates the car and brings it to a halt. Brake rotors will eventually wear out or develop issues and make it hard for your car to stop.
One of the ways to spot a failing brake rotor is when you hear a loud squealing noise as you press the brake pedal. Sometimes, you might also notice that the car takes longer to stop than you expected. When the stopping distance of your car suddenly increases, it's a call for attention to the rotor and other braking system components. Another sign you can watch out for is the illumination of brake warning lights on your dashboard.
