How brakes wear in Orlando stop-and-go traffic

When you press the pedal, brake fluid carries the force to calipers that squeeze the pads against the rotors, turning the car’s motion into heat. Every stop wears a little material off the pads, and stop-and-go traffic on roads like I-4 and Orange Blossom Trail means many more stops per mile than open highway driving. Hard braking also heats the rotors, and repeated overheating can leave them unevenly worn, which you feel as a pulse in the pedal.

Brake fluid absorbs moisture from the air over time, and Florida’s humidity makes that worth watching. Water in the fluid lowers its boiling point and can corrode parts inside the system, so the pedal may feel soft after hard use. Many pads have a small metal tab that squeals when they get thin; if the squeal turns into grinding, metal is touching the rotor. A brake inspection measures the pads, checks the rotors and the fluid, and shows what is actually worn.

Signs your brakes need attention

• Squealing, grinding or scraping when you brake
• A soft or spongy brake pedal
• Vibration in the pedal or steering wheel when stopping
• The car pulls to one side under braking
• The brake warning light is on
