Here are some common Ford brake problems and how you can tell if your Ford brakes need servicing:

Ford Brake Problems and Common Symptoms

1. Your Ford is Making Loud Grinding or Squealing Noises When Braking: A grinding sound or any other high-pitched noises during the Ford braking process likely means you’re dealing with worn out brake pads or shoes. It’s time to have your brake pads and shoes inspected because if you continue to drive it puts more stress on the rest of your Ford braking system, resulting in costly repairs. Schedule a Ford brake pad replacement service or shoe replacement service right away to prevent these issues.
2. You Feel Pedal Lag When You Brake in Your Ford: If you feel like your pedal travels further than it should when pushing on the brakes, you may be feeling some brake pad issues or you may have a leak somewhere in your braking system. A soft or spongy feeling when applying pressure to the brakes can also be an indicator of imminent Ford brake failure. Let a Ford brake professional diagnose the issue as soon as you feel something is off, this will help avoid a loss of braking capability and extensive damages.
3. A Sharp, Burning Smell Is Coming From Your Ford: A burnt smell, especially after extensive use of the brakes, could mean your Ford brake pads are overheated. This reduces the lifetime of your Ford braking components. Cooling on overheating brakes can also reduce the effectiveness of your brake pads. Have your brake pads inspected as soon as possible, it could be a quick adjustment to make sure your brake pads and calipers are positioned correctly.
4. Your Ford Brake Pedal Pulses or Your Steering Wheel Vibrations When You Brake: If you feel vibrations or pulsing in the brake pedal or steering wheel during the process of braking this may be symptoms of a damaged rotor. This can be due to rust, warping of the rotor from excessive braking at high speeds, or to worn down brake pads. Driving a Ford with warped or damaged rotors is not safe, these should be repaired right away. To keep your Ford rotors in good condition, replace your brake pads at reasonable intervals.
5. An Alert or Red Warning Light Is On Your Ford Dashboard Regarding Your Brakes: These warning lights can indicate a variety of brake system problems. When the brake pad material is close to completely worn out, the sensor may turn the brake warning light on, to let you know that it is time to check and replace the brakes. Your brake fluid could also be low if you have a fluid leak. Ensure that these issues are addressed as soon as possible for your safety.

Other Important Ford Brake Inspection Concerns

• Checking for even wear and measuring brake pad/shoe thickness

• Checking rotors for hot spots and run-outs
