What to Do When the Vehicle Braking System Shows Abnormalities?
1 Answers
It is recommended to promptly visit a 4S shop for inspection and repair if the braking system shows abnormalities. The operational state of a vehicle's braking system determines the safety of passengers inside the car. Only when it is in a healthy condition can it successfully decelerate or even stop the vehicle according to the driver's intention. Below are manifestations of braking system abnormalities: 1. There are many phenomena indicating a faulty braking system, specifically when the brake pedal does not rise upon pressing. The reason for this situation is the lack of brake fluid in the car. It is necessary to check for oil leaks at the brake calipers, pipelines, and joints, or to inspect whether the master cylinder or caliper components are damaged. 2. Sometimes, pressing the brake pedal all the way down results in poor braking performance. This is because there is air mixed in the braking system. If continuously pressing the brake pedal causes the pedal to return higher and the braking performance improves slightly, the fault may be due to excessive gap between the friction pads and the brake drum, requiring inspection and repair at a 4S shop. 3. If the brake pedal's position is very low, and when pressed, it does not rise, feeling extremely hard, this indicates a blockage in the brake master cylinder, which needs to be cleaned promptly.
