The saying, "a car that cannot start is an inconvenience, but a car that cannot stop is downright dangerous," emphasizes just how critical your vehicle's braking system is. While a vehicle that won’t start can lead to lost time, failing brakes can put your life at risk. Many brake issues are best handled by professionals, and while basic diagnostics should be within the skill set of every Mercedes Benz owner, our trained technicians are available to help maintain your brakes’ optimal performance.

Here are some simple tests to see if you need Mercedes Benz Brake Repair or maintenance:

• Start your engine while keeping your car in park or neutral with the parking brake engaged. Once stopped, apply pressure to the brake pedal.
• If your brakes feel spongy, there might be air in your brake lines.
• If your pedal sinks to the floor, it could mean a defective master cylinder, which poses a risk of brake failure and needs immediate attention.
• Release the parking brake and drive around the block, stopping intermittently and evaluating how the brakes feel.
• Notice the effort needed to bring your vehicle to a stop.
• Power brakes should stop with the pedal more than an inch from the floor; in older cars without power brakes, it should be more than three inches.
• If power brakes require excessive effort to stop, you may need a power booster replacement.
• If your brakes feel low, pump the brake pedal while driving.
• Should pumping the pedal make the brakes more responsive, you may need a brake adjustment or could be low on brake fluid.
• If you check your brake fluid and it’s at normal levels, it could indicate a more serious problem. Here at Orozco’s, we can conduct a thorough inspection to locate and fix any issues.

More about Mercedes Benz Brake Repair

Pay attention to your brakes during normal driving.

• If your vehicle takes longer than usual to stop, it may require brake adjustments or new brake linings.
• If your vehicle pulls to one side when braking, you may have a stuck caliper or a brake fluid leak.
• If your brake pedal pulses during normal stops, your brakes might be overheating from overuse.
• If your steering wheel shakes when you brake, it may indicate warped front brake rotors needing refinishing or replacement.
• If your brakes squeal when stopping, your brake pads or other components may be worn or missing parts.
• If your brakes produce a grinding noise felt in the pedal, they are likely severely worn and require immediate repair to prevent more extensive damage to your brake system.

Never ignore brake concerns. If your Mercedes Benz exhibits any of these symptoms, address them urgently before driving again. Brake failure poses a danger not only to your life but also to others on the road.
