Brake pedals are a crucial component for your car, and when they need to be repaired it can lead to very dangerous situations. So what are the signs that tell you that your brake pedal needs to be repaired?
A squishy brake pedal is very dangerous. When driving, if you feel that your brake pedal is not firm or having any resistance whatsoever when stepping on it, then this can be a problem. The easiest way to check this is by pushing down on the pedal and letting go of it slowly. If the pedal shakes back and forth freely then there is a concern that your brake pedal may need repair.
You can also check the positioning of the pedal by turning it sideways on its axis. If there is any visible movement or play then this could mean that your brake pedals need to be repaired as well. You can also physically inspect your calipers and rotors for signs of wear and tear.
