How to Solve Cadillac Brake Squeaking Issues?
2 Answers
In fact, this is a normal phenomenon and there's no need to worry excessively, as it does not indicate a malfunction. You can resolve it by grinding the edges of the brake pads to avoid friction between the brake pads and the groove edges. If the grooves are already deep, it is advisable to replace the brake disc. This is usually due to the brake pads being made of harder material. Generally, this situation can be ignored initially; wait and see if it improves after some self-wearing in.
My Cadillac's brakes are making strange noises. I usually check the brake pad thickness myself first. If they're too thin, it's time to replace them. Cadillac brake pads are wear-resistant but can squeak after prolonged use. Try simply cleaning the brake discs or sanding the edges with sandpaper. Sometimes it's due to rust on the discs or small stones stuck in them, which can be fixed by washing, or damp weather can also cause noise. I often recommend going to a 4S dealership for genuine replacement parts—they're reliable and extend the lifespan. When driving normally, avoid sudden braking to reduce wear and noise. In short, don't delay. If you can't fix it yourself, quickly find a professional mechanic to avoid compromising braking performance. Safety comes first—cars need careful attention.
