Signs Your  Semi-Truck Needs a Brake Service

Grinding & Squealing

Noises when braking can indicate the disc pad is scraping on metal, a stuck pebble, or lack of lubrication. Don't ignore it!

Pulling or Low Resistance

This is a sign your brakes are wearing out unevenly, whether from a misalignment, a worn-out suspension, or a stuck caliper.

Burning Smells

Overheated brakes will create an unmistakable sharp, chemical odor. Worn, damaged or jammed brake pads can cause this. Pull over and let your brakes cool down. 

Brake Warning Light Comes On

If your truck's brake warning light lights up on the dash, it means there's an issue. Take it into Motorplex for a brake service right away.
