Our vehicles are capable of telling us what they need. Typically, they'll let us know how much time we have to schedule repairs or if we've missed the mark. Here are the top three ways your Volvo vehicle will tell you that it's time to make an appointment with us for critical Volvo brake services:
Reason #3: Your Volvo Brake Failure Light Switch Has Come On
When your Volvo vehicle is equipped with a brake pad wear sensor, a light will illuminate when the pad's wear falls below the minimum thickness level. Scheduling an appointment will help prevent further damage to any of the four Volvo brake rotors on your vehicle. You have some time, but the sooner you make an appointment, the more minor the repairs our technicians will have to make.
Reason #2: The Light Is on & You Hear Occasional Scraping Noises
Once your pads are worn past minimum thickness, you'll eventually hear the sound of metal on metal when braking. If you experience this, come and see us right away to prevent further damage. This scenario can also create steering problems and vibrations when you press down on the brake pedal.
Reason #1: Your Brake Pedal Touches the Floor
If you neglect to schedule service for too long, what's left of your pad might eject from your Volvo brake caliper. When that happens, your wheel may begin smoking. At this point, the piston seals in your calipers could tear and leak Volvo brake fluid, and you risk damage to expensive hydraulic components. In this situation, you might need a complete fluid replacement, new calipers, new pads, new rotors, and more, depending upon the extent of the damage.
Use our fast and easy Volvo brake services to complete your repairs before they turn into bigger issues. While your vehicle is here, we can save you time and money by combining it with other maintenance, like a routine Volvo oil change. Ask a service advisor about fusing multiple services into a single visit.
