What to Do When the Vehicle's Braking System Shows Abnormal Warning?

Here are the solutions when the vehicle's braking system shows abnormal warning: Solutions: It is recommended to promptly visit a 4S shop for inspection and repair if the braking system shows abnormalities. The operational condition of a vehicle's braking system determines the safety of passengers. Only when it's in proper working condition can it effectively decelerate or stop the vehicle according to the driver's commands. Symptoms of braking system abnormalities: There are various manifestations of brake system failures. A common symptom is when the brake pedal doesn't return after being pressed. This is usually caused by insufficient brake fluid, requiring inspection for leaks at the wheel cylinders, pipelines, and connectors, or checking whether the master cylinder or wheel cylinder components are damaged. Another scenario is when the braking effect remains poor even with the pedal fully depressed. This may indicate air in the brake system. If the braking improves after repeatedly pumping the pedal, the likely cause is excessive clearance between the friction pads and brake drums, necessitating inspection and repair at a 4S shop.
