Why does the Haval F7 make a screeching sound when braking?
2 Answers
Haval F7 makes a screeching sound when braking due to the following reasons: foreign objects on the brake disc surface, lack of lubrication in the vehicle, or oil contamination between the brake pads and brake disc. Below are detailed explanations of these causes: Foreign objects on the brake disc surface: Check if there are any foreign objects on the surface of the brake disc that may cause abnormal wear. If it is confirmed that the screeching sound during braking is due to foreign objects on the brake disc surface, remove these objects. Lack of lubrication in the vehicle: If there is a noise near the door when braking, it indicates that the vehicle lacks lubrication. Oil contamination between the brake pads and brake disc: Check if the issue is caused by oil contamination between the brake pads and brake disc leading to wear. Clean any oil or foreign objects between the brake pads and brake disc to resolve the problem.
I've been driving a Haval F7 recently too, and there's always that annoying screeching sound when I hit the brakes, which is really uncomfortable. Possible reasons could be that the brake pads are worn too thin, causing the metal inside to rub directly against the brake disc and make noise; or the brake disc has dust or small stones stuck to it, especially after rainy days. I think it's best not to ignore such small issues. My family had another car that made similar noises before, and after driving for a month, the braking distance became longer, which was quite dangerous. I suggest you take some time to visit a nearby repair shop and have them check it out. They can quickly determine if the brake pads need replacing and can also clean the brake system while they're at it. It should take about one or two hours to fix, so don't worry too much, but do address it promptly. Try to avoid sudden braking in daily driving to extend the life of the brake pads.
