Latest Brakes Repair Questions
- When my 1999 Saturn is moving it is making this crazy loud popping sound. It feels like something is catching on one of the wheels. The brakes do not seem to have as much power and my steering wheel is now slightly jerking as I drive down the road. Help?

Information
What are brake pads?
A car's brake pads create friction when a brake pad exerts pressure on a rotor and/or disc, which then provides stopping power to the vehicle.
Is that squealing noise normal?
Over time brakes deteriorate, and just as a pain in the human body serves as a reminder that something is wrong, squeaky brakes are usually a reminder that it's time to change the brake pads. Most brake pads have squeakers. As the pad is ground down through normal use, it reaches the squeaker, which is a reminder to change the pads. If the problem goes on for too long, a worn brake pad will eventually eat grooves in the rotor. Replacing pads is relatively inexpensive but rotors are not.
