Worn brake pads
Over time, brake pads wear down and need to be replaced to maintain effective braking performance.
Brake caliper issues
Calipers can become stuck or seize, causing uneven braking or pulling to one side.
Master cylinder failure
A failing master cylinder can result in a spongy brake pedal and diminished braking power.
Engine misfires
V8 engines can experience misfires due to issues with spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors.
Fuel injector problems
