Most common problems:

Brake fluid leaks

Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, calipers, or master cylinder, leading to reduced braking efficiency.

Worn brake pads or rotors

Over time, brake pads and rotors wear down, which can cause reduced braking performance, squealing noises, and increased stopping distances.

Air in brake lines

Air can enter the hydraulic brake system and cause a spongy brake pedal feel, reducing the effectiveness of the brakes.

Abs malfunctions

Issues with the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) can lead to warning lights on the dashboard and reduced braking control during emergency stops.

Brake booster failure

A failing brake booster can result in a hard brake pedal and increased effort required to stop the vehicle.

Brake fluid contamination

Contaminated brake fluid can reduce the effectiveness of the braking system, leading to increased stopping distances and potential brake failure.

Worn brake calipers

Worn or sticking brake calipers can cause uneven braking and increased wear on brake pads and rotors.

Brake pedal vibration

Warped brake rotors or uneven wear can cause vibration or pulsation felt through the brake pedal during braking.

Brake light issues

Faulty brake light switches or wiring problems can result in brake lights not functioning properly, posing a safety hazard.

Electronic brake control issues

Problems with electronic brake control modules can affect the performance of systems like Dynamic Brake Support (DBS) and other stability control functions.
