While every part of your car is necessary for the operation of your vehicle, the brakes are easily the most important, especially regarding safety. Your brakes are what allow your car to come to a complete stop—and, in extreme situations, you may need to come to a complete stop suddenly—and as a result, you want to make sure your brakes are properly serviced. But how, exactly, do you know when to service your brakes?
Many people recommend servicing your brakes only once a year—saying that otherwise, they should be fine. But it's ideal if you base when you service your brakes on the total number of miles driven—for example, many mechanics actually recommend you service your brakes every 12,000 miles or so—or, alternatively, if your brakes start to make a scraping or squealing noise.
