Brake pads typically last 25,000 to 70,000 miles depending on your driving habits and conditions. Warning signs include squeaking or squealing sounds, a soft brake pedal, longer stopping distances, or a brake warning light on your dashboard. Don't ignore these-your brakes are critical to safety. Castle Hyundai Oak Lawn's Service Department can inspect your brakes during a routine visit or anytime you notice changes in how your car stops. We'll let you know exactly what your brakes need and keep you safe on the road. Call (708) 422-9300 to schedule a brake inspection today.
