It is simplistic to say that, when you get into your car, you want it to go somewhere.
But there's more to driving than that. You also want the car to stop in time to avoid accidents. That's why you have the trusted auto repair technicians at the Meineke Car Care Center on Manheim Pike in Lancaster available to care for your brakes.
You may be wondering - should you pay special attention to your brakes as cold weather sets in?
It's not a simple yes or no. Cold weather, as such, does not harm your braking system but you may find that winter affects your brakes in other ways.
Many of those issues will show up as noises, according to cartreatments.com. Those noises range from squeaking and squealing caused by moisture in the air by snow, slush, or water on the road; to grinding. The grinding can be caused by rust buildup on brake rotors, which is generally nothing to worry about; worn pads, or rotors. A brake technician should be able to help in that case.
Other possible cold weather issues that can affect your brakes include brake rotor contraction, damage from road salt, and frozen components.
One way to avoid winter brake problems, businessinsider.com says, is to have your brakes inspected or serviced at the beginning of the season and again in the middle of winter. You should also replace your brake fluid with one more suited to cold weather.
