What Causes the Car to Be Unable to Move Due to Drum Brake Rust?
1 Answers
Because the rust is too stubborn, using continuous braking not only fails to "polish" it but also accelerates the wear of the brake pads if forced. Here are the detailed explanations: 1. Check the brake pads: Brake pads are the most critical safety components in the braking system. New brake pads are about 1.5 cm thick, and when worn down to 3-5 mm, they need to be replaced. 2. Observe the brake fluid: Car owners should pay attention to the color and level of the brake fluid. Brake fluid should be a slightly yellow, transparent liquid. If not replaced for a long time, it can turn black or green, affecting braking performance. If the brake fluid does not reach the reservoir's baseline, allowing air to enter, it will affect the sensitivity of the brakes. 3. Check for abnormal noises in the brakes: Worn-out brake pads, very hard small particles in the brake pads rubbing against the brake disc, or foreign objects stuck inside can all cause abnormal noises.
