Your brakes are what allow you to stop moving if you're approaching a stop sign or getting too close to the vehicle in front of you. Here at Crown Lexus, we prioritize brake service for your Lexus because without properly functioning brakes, your vehicle would be unsafe to drive. Every Lexus owner should be aware of the condition of their brakes and should be able to identify any problems before they turn into something more serious. Let's delve in a little deeper and talk about proper brake maintenance and when you should get them serviced.

Common Warning Signs That Your Brakes Need Attention
It's important to monitor your brakes carefully and to be aware of the potential warning signs that may indicate that your brakes need servicing. Common warning signs to be on the lookout for include:
- Loud or obnoxious noises coming from your brakes
- Brake warning light illuminates on the dashboard
- Burning smell coming from underneath the vehicle
- Brake pedal going all the way to the floor with little to no resistance
In addition to understanding and being able to identify these warning signs, it's also crucial that drivers be aware of what their brakes consist of. In the event of an emergency and when something goes wrong, it's important to know where and how to inspect your brakes to check for any major damages. First off, your brakes consist of three main components: brake pads, brake calipers, and rotors. Together, these three parts form your brakes and work in tandem to help bring your vehicle to a halt.
If your Lexus is new and was recently serviced by our team here at Crown Lexus, then most likely your brakes are in fair condition. But it's wise to know which parts of your brakes require more attention than others. For example, your brake pads wear down quicker than your calipers or rotors, so being able to identify and replace your brake pads is crucial for the continued operability and safety of your vehicle on the roads in Ontario, CA.
