Car Making a Noise When Braking?

​If your car makes a grinding, squealing, or knocking noise when you brake, it’s a sign that something isn’t right — and it shouldn’t be ignored. Noises when braking often indicate worn brake pads, damaged discs, or issues with the braking system that could affect your safety. At PW Auto Repairs, we’ll carry out a thorough inspection to identify the cause and get you safely back on the road. Whether it’s a quick fix or a full brake replacement, we’ll explain your options clearly and carry out the work to the highest standards.
