In order to safely stop your vehicle, your brakes are designed with pads or shoes that slowly wear out as you use them.

If you wait too long to replace them, your rotors could be damaged and worse, you could be putting yourself at risk for brake failure.

Signs your brakes might be worn out

Bring your vehicle to your  Lincoln Dealership as soon as possible for a brake inspection and possible replacement parts if you notice any of the following symptoms of brake wear:

•     Loud or frequent squeaks or grinding

•     A burning odor

•     Your brake pedal becomes hard to press or feels “squishy”

•     Your steering wheel shudders or continuously vibrates

•     Rust or metal flakes peeling off your brakes

•     Scratches or gouging in your rotors

•     The brake system warning light turns on
