Make sure your braking system is ready for the weather ahead   As the inclimate weather approaches us, snow, ice and sand on the roads are hazards for slippery surfaces and poor braking ability. Having a check up on your braking system can keep you and your family safe this winter. Here are a few things to keep in mind.. Brake calipers are properly applying to brake rotors: Sometimes your brakes can not be applying properly without any warning, having them checked can determine if your braking system is working at 100% capacity. Squeaking, Service Brake Light on, low brake pedal, poor braking, or burning smell near tires: If you are experiencing any one of these symptoms with your car, there could be a safety hazard and it should be checked immediately. Brake fluid retains moisture: Moisture content in brake fluid causes rust, which is extremely detrimental to your Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS). People have grown to depend on ABS braking, especially in the event of slippery conditions or panic stops. Car manufacturers recommend changing your brake fluid every 45,000 miles.
