It’s important to take care of problems with your vehicle right away. To make it easier for you to take care of your vehicle and to avoid problems, here are the answers to our most frequently asked questions. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, please contact us today.

How often should I change my brake pads?

Typically, brake pads should be changed every 50,000 miles. However, this number can vary based on factors such as the quality of the brakes, the driving environment, and the driver’s habits. Ensure your brake pads’ quality and remaining mileage by having your mechanic inspect them during routine maintenance. Trust Pyle Automotive to keep your brakes in optimal condition.

Why are my breaks squealing?

Squealing can occur for various reasons, and fortunately, not all of them are serious. At Pyle Automotive, we understand that sometimes this unsettling noise can be caused by the accumulation of moisture and dirt on your rotors. In such cases, rest assured that your brakes are still functioning properly. However, it’s important to note that squealing can also signal more serious issues, like excessively worn brake pads or compromised rotor integrity, among others. Should you hear persistent noise coming from your brakes for longer than a day, it is crucial to have them promptly inspected. Trust Pyle Automotive to provide you with the expert care and attention your brakes deserve.

Why is there no resistance when I step on the brakes?
The rigidity of your brake pedal is directly influenced by the condition of your brake lines and fluid levels. Should there be any air in the brake lines or a low fluid level, you may experience the brake pedal falling closer to the floor before the brakes engage. This is a matter that should not be taken lightly, as it serves as a warning that your brakes may be heading towards failure. Ensure the safety of your vehicle by addressing this issue promptly. Trust Pyle Automotive to keep your brakes in optimal working condition.
Why do my brakes vibrate when I am stopping?
Vibrating brakes are typically caused by warped rotors. Rotors can become warped due to age, heavy braking, or overheating. These conditions cause the rotors to lose their perfect flatness, resulting in a noticeable shaking when the brake pads make contact. While your car can still brake with warped rotors, it may take longer to stop. It’s important to address this issue promptly. If you are experiencing any of the mentioned problems, reach out to Pyle Automotive for an appointment. We are here to assist you.
How often should I check my brake fluid?
Each time you bring your vehicle to Pyle Automotive for an oil change, it presents an opportune moment to ensure your brake fluid is in optimal condition. Checking your brake fluid at least once a year is a recommended practice that we encourage our customers to follow.
