Question:
_________
.The brakes on your vehicle must be effective and properly adjusted. If your vehicle pulls to one side when braking, take it to be checked by a qualified mechanic. Don’t take risks.
Common reasons why your vehicle pulls to one side when braking:
- Uneven tyre pressure: When driving or stopping, uneven tyre pressure can cause a car to pull. Low pressure on one side of the vehicle alters the tire's height and relative speed, impacting the car's effective alignment. You may simply resolve this issue by keeping correct tyre pressure in all four tyres.
- Worn out brake pads: As brake pads wear out, they will display a variety of symptoms, one of which may be pushing to the side while braking. When the brake pads need to be replaced, the brakes may squeal. Most brake pads have an indictor built into them that comes into contact with the rotor and squeals when the pads become too thin, functioning as a warning mechanism to the driver. When you hear a grinding sound, it usually implies that your brake pads have worn completely through and the metal backing plate of the pads is now grinding on the rotors. Immediate services is necessary.Worn or warped rotors: Worn or warped rotors can cause the vehicle to vibrate when the brakes are applied and in some cases the car will pull to one side when braking. Rotors can be warped due to stress from towing, hilly terrain, or other situations that put stress on your braking system.
- When braking, you will detect a considerable pull to one side if one of the brake callipers is stuck. Even if you are not braking, you will most likely detect a pull to one side.
- Brake hose collapse: A collapsed brake hose can cause callipers to move unevenly, causing the car to pull to one side during braking.
- Suspension components that have worn down can create a variety of difficulties, including the automobile pulling to one side when driving or braking. The issue might be with the ball joints, springs, bushings, or any other components. Suspension parts will all move as they wear, and when this happens, the automobile will pull to one side.
