How to Solve the Front Wheel Brake Lock-up Issue in Cruze?

[Ramon]

There are three methods to solve the front wheel brake lock-up issue in Cruze: forced start, tire removal, or brake master cylinder cup blockage. Below are the reasons for tire lock-up: 1. Absence of ABS anti-lock braking system: For vehicles without an ABS anti-lock braking system, it is easy to experience lock-up during emergency braking. This happens because, during sudden braking, the braking force exceeds the friction between the tires and the ground, leading to tire lock-up. In severe cases, this can cause skidding or even rollover. 2. Vehicle parked for an extended period leading to lock-up: Especially for vehicles that have been through water and then parked for a long time, lock-up is most likely to occur. When the brake pads and drum brakes stick together, they are prone to rust, causing tire lock-up. In such cases, sandpaper can be used to polish and alleviate the lock-up phenomenon.
