Components Of The Brake System That May Fail
Our experienced technicians conduct a thorough inspection to diagnose the precise issues affecting your brakes. We examine key components, including:
Master cylinder
When the brake fluid is not being fed to the brakes through the brake lines, it is stored in the master cylinder, the brain of the vehicle's braking system. The brake pads will be damaged if braking fluid leaks because the master cylinder is worn, brake lines are clogged, or the brake lines are broken.
brake fluid
The brake fluid itself may get soiled or polluted when it absorbs moisture that promotes rust and gathers other debris, or it may degrade due to excessive heat. While unclean brake fluid may be dark or even black, clean brake fluid is either clear or slightly yellow. Internal damage to ABS brake systems can be caused by old or unclean brake fluid.
brake lines
A combination valve, which includes a metering valve with a proportioning valve, is used to link the brake lines to the master cylinder. In order to ensure that both sets of brakes are applied simultaneously, it controls the pressure on the front and rear wheels. The wheels could lock up due to a broken combination valve.
Brake Pads
Brake systems consist of metal disc rotors and drums that interact with brake pads and shoes made of ceramic, metal, or organic materials. Over time, these pads and shoes naturally wear down due to the friction needed to stop the vehicle. In extreme cases, they can wear away completely, leading to metal-on-metal contact between the calipers, cylinders, rotors, and drums, resulting in potential damage.
