Hearing Brake Noise?
Stopping power is crucial to a safe and successful driving experience. When you need brake service, your Certified Service experts at Coughlin Chevrolet Buick GMC of Circleville can recommend quality ACDelco Gold (Professional) or GM Original Equipment brakes.
Determining the Time for Brake Repair or Replacement
Sometimes, your vehicle’s brakes will alert you when there is trouble. Squealing noises, chirping sounds, and grinding are indications that brake repair is required.
Brake Pad Warning Indicator
GM brake pads often come equipped with a small, thin piece of metal attached to them to act as a warning indicator when the pad material is getting low and the brake pads should be replaced. This device makes a high-pitched sound on brake application, letting you know it is time for brake service.

BRAKE FAQs
You should have your brakes serviced or inspected at least every 7,500 miles. It’s important to keep in mind that brake components wear out at different intervals and under different driving conditions. So, if you notice noises such as squealing, chirping and grinding, as well as pedal pulsations, come in for service.
Brake calipers, brake pads, brake rotors, brake shoes and brake hoses will all need to be repaired or replaced at some point as part of regular brake service and maintenance during the normal lifespan of a vehicle.
No. If there are no conditions such as pedal pulsation or steering-wheel vibration during braking, and the brake rotor is at least 1 mm thicker than the discard thickness, then it does not need to be turned or replaced.
