    Before booking brake repairs

    Describe the symptom as clearly as possible. Note whether the brakes squeal, grind, pulse, pull to one side, feel soft, or trigger a warning light. These details help the team understand what needs to be checked.

    Share the vehicle make, model, year and any recent brake work. A symptom alone does not establish the cause, so avoid replacing parts based only on a guess. If braking performance is seriously reduced or you suspect a safety-critical failure, do not drive the vehicle to the workshop; arrange appropriate assistance.
