What are the Signs of Low Brake Fluid in a Car

Modern-day cars usually have a hydraulic braking system. A hydraulic braking system is nothing but a simple arrangement of a braking mechanism that uses brake fluid to stay functional. When the brake fluid goes low, the fluid pressure fails to distribute itself evenly around the braking system and thereby reducing the overall braking performance. Any kind of leak, damaged brake lines, worn brake pads- are the factors that cause the brake fluid to go low. So, inspect the braking system all the time, replace the fluid whenever needed- for preventing any sort of inconvenience due to brake failure.

  1. WHAT ARE THE SIGNS OF LOW BRAKE FLUID IN A CAR?

  2. The primary job of the braking system of a car is to regulate the speed of a car and thus helps to prevent possible collisions.

  3. Invention of hydraulic braking systems has significantly enhanced the ability of a driver to get better control over the movement of a car.

  4. Hydraulic fluid used in the braking system could amplify the braking force by transferring the force into pressure.

  5. However, such fluid is hygroscopic in nature which means that it can absorb moisture from the atmosphere.

  6. Besides, lack of a sufficient amount of brake fluid might adversely affect the efficiency of the braking system.

  7. SIGNS OF LOW BRAKE FLUID

  8. ABS LIGHT ILLUMINATES Illumination of ABS or Anti-lock braking system light clearly indicates that the braking system might have some issues which need immediate attention.

  9. A braking system could not work efficiently in the absence of an adequate amount of brake fluid.

  10. Insufficient amount of brake fluid would trigger ABS light illumination.

  11. UNNATURAL SOUND An insufficient amount of brake fluid or deposition of contaminants in the brake fluid might adversely affect the efficiency of the braking system.

  12. Besides, low brake fluid level could also be responsible for the generation of unnatural sound while applying the brakes.

  13. So, it should be considered as a warning sign and the brake fluid level should be inspected immediately.

  14. VISIBLE LEAKS Puddle of fluid near the wheels of a car is a clear indication of brake fluid leakage as a result of which the brake fluid level declines.

  15. Besides, the quantity as well as quality of brake fluid should be inspected regularly.

  16. Cracks responsible for the leakage of brake fluid should be repaired immediately.

  17. INEFFICIENT BRAKE PADS Low fluid level or contaminated brake fluid could adversely affect the brake pads of a car.

  18. Brake pads are essential components of the braking system of a car.

  19. If the brake pads are not working properly, then its root cause needs to be identified and repaired.

  20. BOTTOM LINE

  21. Hydraulic fluid used in the braking system helps to amplify the braking force and thus enhance its effectiveness.

  22. Inadequate amount of brake fluid or lack of a sufficient amount of brake fluid might have disastrous outcomes.

  23. So, low brake fluid should not be neglected and timely action should be taken to fix the problem.
