Handle That Brake Noise Immediately, You Are Risking Your Life
For whatever reason, many people ignore the screeching and grinding—perhaps hoping it stops or is a temporary part of driving.
Neglecting your Brakes can easily cost you far more money and/or result in injury or loss of life. Let’s just focus on costing more money.
Consider this. An economically priced set of Brake Pads costs about $40—some as low as $27. Then installation starts @ 75.00. That $100, or less, for installing a set of Brake Pads.
Now let’s compare spending $300. A brake caliper will cost about $100, on average, and requires another $100 in labor for installation and Brake Bleeding.
In the video below, the Brake Rotor snatched the Brake Pad, due to metal on metal.

Please pay attention to the Brake Fluid on the ground. The Caliper Piston couldn’t be pushed into the Caliper. The thin Brake Pads provided too much space.
No fluid no Brakes. The entire pedal can go dead. No Brakes. No stopping power.
This situation is seen far too often.
Don’t let this happen to you.
