PULLING TO ONE SIDE OR ANOTHER: This is caused by your brakes wearing unevenly or something in your brake line. Your brake lining may have to be cleaned out and the fluid having to replaced. VIBRATION: Vibrations or pulsating brake pedal can be a symptom of warped rotors (but can also indicate that your vehicle is out of alignment; 106 St Tire & Wheel locations do wheel alignments for most cars for $45 www.106sttire.com/wheel_alignment ). Have antilock brakes? Well, the vibration can feel similar to the pulsating feeling brake pedal during a fast stop. BRAKES ARE LESS RESPONSIVE: If it’s taking you longer to stop or your break pedal is going to the floor boards please address this immediately. There could be a leak in your braking system and not being able to stop your vehicle in an emergency is dangerous.
