If you notice any of the following warning signs, it’s essential to book a brake check immediately:
- Squeaking, Squealing, or Grinding Noises – Often caused by worn brake pads.
- Spongy or Soft Brake Pedal – Indicates air in the braking system or failing brake fluid.
- Car Pulling to One Side When Braking – Suggests uneven brake pad wear or a faulty calliper.
- Steering Wheel Vibrations When Braking – Often due to warped brake discs.
- Longer Stopping Distances – A clear sign your brakes are not functioning properly.

Ignoring these warning signs can lead to dangerous driving conditions and costly repairs.
How Often Should Brakes Be Checked?
It’s recommended that brakes are inspected at least once a year or every 12,000 miles, depending on your driving style and road conditions. However, high-mileage drivers or those frequently driving in stop-start traffic may need more frequent checks.
At RS Maidenhead MOT, we can check your brakes during your annual service or MOT test to ensure they are in optimal condition.
