What Are the Causes of Intermittent Brake Failure?
1 Answers
During daily driving, a lack of awareness about brake system maintenance may lead to temporary brake failure due to excessive impurities in the brake master cylinder or poor sealing. Additionally, vacuum booster pump failure or excessively dirty brake fluid can result in poor braking performance. Furthermore, oil leakage from the brake master cylinder or wheel cylinders during driving can also cause temporary brake system failure. Below is relevant information: 1. Brake Pads: Brake pads are components that require frequent replacement during daily driving. Generally, they should be replaced every 30,000 kilometers, although this is not a fixed mileage. The replacement interval depends on the driver's habits and driving conditions. Frequent overtaking or heavy brake usage can shorten the replacement cycle. Drivers should regularly inspect their brake pads and replace them promptly if abnormal wear is detected. 2. Brake Discs: Brake discs have a relatively long service life. Many well-maintained vehicles may not require brake disc replacement, but proper maintenance methods are essential. For instance, after high-speed driving, the brake discs will be in a high-temperature state, and washing the car immediately should be avoided, as this can shorten the lifespan of the brake discs or even render them unusable.
