Common Warning Signs You’re Driving with Worn Brake Pads 

Most Honda brake pads last around 50,000 miles before needing to be replaced, but they may sometimes become worn sooner due to anything from driving with heavy loads across Oxnard to adopting an aggressive driving style.

If you’re worried your brake pads might need replacing, you can always carry out a quick visual inspection yourself. If any pad looks less than a quarter of an inch thick, chances are good it’s become too worn for safe driving. Further warning signs include:

  • Vibrating Brake Pedal During Braking
  • Sound of Metal-on-Metal During Braking
  • Active Brake Lights When Brakes Aren’t Used
  • Squeaking or Squealing During Braking

Common Warning Signs You’re Driving with Worn Brake Rotors

Brake rotors should last between 30,000 and 70,000 miles, and they can also be visually inspected. The rotors are the large pieces of metal fitted to your wheel hub, and you should schedule servicing as soon as possible if you notice any surface cracks or other signs of wear.

Further warning signs include:

  • Vibrating Steering Wheel During Braking
  • Sound of Metal-on-Metal During Braking
