Why is Brake Service Important for Your Vehicle?  

Routine brake service ensures your vehicle can stop effectively in all driving conditions, preventing accidents and protecting passengers. Regular maintenance enhances the lifespan of your brake components. Timely inspections and replacements avoid unnecessary wear and tear, saving you from costly repairs down the road. Moreover, well-maintained brakes contribute to the overall performance of your Kia. Knowing that your brakes are in top condition eliminates the stress and uncertainty of compromised braking systems, allowing you to focus on the road ahead.  

What are the Signs Your Kia Needs a Brake Service?  

How do you know when it’s time for a brake service? Below are some of the signs that suggest your brakes might need attention:  

• Unusual noises, such as high-pitched squeaking or squealing when you apply the brakes, can clearly indicate worn brake pads.  
• If you hear a grinding noise when braking, it could mean that your brake pads have completely worn down and the metal components are now grinding against each other. 
• Vibrations or a pulsating sensation when applying the brakes could be a sign of uneven rotor wear that can affect the effectiveness of your brakes.  
• When pressed, a brake pedal that feels soft or spongy could indicate a problem with the brake fluid or air in the brake lines.
