Problems:
Brake fluid leaks
Hydraulic brake systems are prone to brake fluid leaks, which can lead to reduced braking efficiency and potentially brake failure.
Brake pad wear
Over time, brake pads wear down and need to be replaced to ensure proper braking performance.
Master cylinder failure
The master cylinder can fail or develop issues, leading to a loss of hydraulic pressure and ineffective braking.
Brake line corrosion
Brake lines can corrode over time, especially in areas with harsh weather conditions, leading to leaks and braking issues.
Brake caliper problems
Brake calipers can seize or fail, causing uneven braking and reduced performance.
Brake rotor warping
Excessive heat and wear can cause brake rotors to warp, leading to vibrations and reduced braking efficiency.
Abs sensor failure
The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) sensors can fail, leading to ABS malfunctions and potentially unsafe driving conditions.
Vibration during braking
Warped rotors or uneven brake pads can cause vibrations when the brakes are applied.
Soft brake pedal
Air in the brake lines or a failing master cylinder can cause a soft or spongy brake pedal feel.
Brake warning light
The brake warning light on the dashboard can indicate various issues within the brake system, including low brake fluid, worn pads, or ABS problems.
