Regular brake inspections and scheduled maintenance are essential.
Frequent Inspections
Aside from any yearly inspections or pre-and post-trip checks, add a brake check whenever you have an oil change.
Change Parts Regularly
Brake pads and drums are two parts that need regular replacing, along with linings and hoses. Changing parts regularly prevents dangerous breakdowns.
Lubricate Regularly
The brake system needs to be adequately lubricated to maintain the quality of braking speed and control.
Hire a Professional
Whenever you need an inspection or repair, hire a professional. And, whenever you bring your vehicle in for inspections, always add on a brake inspection.
