Brakes are a vital part of your car. It's imperative that they function properly. Whether its stop-and-go New York traffic or an emergency stop on the interstate, you rely on your car's brakes every time you drive. If you notice anything out of the ordinary with your brakes, schedule a brake check immediately. Here are a couple of things to look for:

Your brake pedal can tell you a lot about how your brake system is functioning. If you notice that your pedal is soft or spongy, or you can press it to the floor with little or no resistance, you have a problem.

You're either low on brake fluid, your fluid is contaminated or your brake pads are worn. Brake fluid can be topped off if it's low. Contaminated fluid will require bleeding your brake system. Heavily worn pads will cause the brake pedal to feel soft. Regular inspections should help you avoid this, but get worn pads replaced immediately.

You may notice that your brakes don't stop you smoothly. If you notice that your car jerks suddenly or pulls to one side when braking, you may have a problem. It's likely that you have worn or bad brake pads. Have them inspected immediately and replaced if necessary.

Bad or contaminated brake pads may also cause your vehicle to vibrate when braking. Not only does this mean that your brakes aren't functioning properly, but it also causes added stress on the suspension components of your vehicle. Get you pads inspected and replaced if necessary.

Your brakes should be silent. If you hear a squealing sound when applying the brakes, your brake pads are worn. They'll need to be replaced as soon as possible.
