What Causes Car Brake Noise?
1 Answers
The reason for car brake noise is a problem in the brake system. Worn brake pads become very thin, causing the brake drum to directly contact the vehicle, resulting in noise from metal friction. If the brake pads are too thin, a warning indicator light should illuminate. If the wear hasn't reached the set limit, the light may sometimes not come on. If the brake pads are found to be fine upon inspection, the car can be driven normally. If the car is new, because both the brake pads and brake discs are brand new, they are in the break-in period, which can cause unusual noises while driving. If the noise is due to this reason, the owner need not worry, as the noise will automatically disappear after the car completes the break-in period.
