What causes the squeaking sound when the car brakes are fully applied?
1 Answers
If the car is new or has just had new brake pads installed, the new brake pads and brake discs require a break-in period, during which such sounds may occur when braking, and this is a normal phenomenon. Below is relevant information about brake pads: 1. Both brake discs and brake pads are high-wear items. Every time you brake, these two components rub against each other, leading to natural wear over time. Typically, brake pads should be replaced every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers, while brake discs should be replaced every 100,000 to 120,000 kilometers. 2. If the brake shield is loose, improperly installed after removal, damaged due to impact, or if the brake pads are worn out, the limit tabs rubbing against the brake disc can also produce noise.
