What are the reasons for car brake failure?
1 Answers
Car brake failure is caused by worn and thinned brake pads or insufficient brake fluid, and continuing to drive under such conditions poses safety hazards. The braking system of a car is crucial for vehicle deceleration, as it technically ensures safe driving. New cars undergo a break-in period for the braking system during initial use, with the first 1,000 kilometers being the break-in period for new car brakes. It is recommended to avoid emergency braking during this time. Both brake pads and brake discs have a limited lifespan and must be replaced when worn beyond a certain point. The specific replacement interval depends on the vehicle's usage, but it is generally recommended to inspect them every 50,000 kilometers.
