Yes, they make a screeching sound.
Brakes can make noise even when not braking due to factors like worn brake pads, rust on the rotors, or debris caught in the braking system. These issues can cause friction and vibrations, leading to noise when the vehicle is in motion.
brakes are need to be replace
They could, yes.
change brakes or check drums
The most common reason for a wheel to make noise when you brake is the brakes needing replacement. When the brake pads or shoes wear down, the metal scrapes against the metal on the drums or rotors, causing noise.
No but heavy braking will
Brake noise when not braking could be caused by issues such as worn brake pads, loose brake components, or debris caught in the braking system. It is important to have the brakes inspected by a professional to determine the exact cause and address any potential safety concerns.
The brakes may make a clicking noise if the caliper is going bad. I just changed the brakes and the rotors and discovered my car was making a clicking noise. The garage I took it to replaced the caliper, so now it doesn't make the noise anymore.
They make it so the car does not lock up the brakes and slide. Antilock braking system.
When brakes get wet, the water can cause friction between the brake pads and rotors, leading to noise.
If the car was sitting for a while and it was damp out, rust forms on the brake rotors. For the first mile or you will hear a grinding noise when braking until the rust has been removed by the brake pads. The longer it has been sitting, the louder it may be. This is normal.
Yes. Brakes can make noise even when you are not applying actual braking force. Some examples of this include foreign objects that have been lodged in between the caliper and the rotor. This can be something as small as a pebble that is lodged between the two or something more serious. In addition I have seen calipers with the piston falling out of them due to neglect. this is not only dangerous it is quite loud. In either case you should have the wheels removed and the brakes inspected for possible damage or foreign objects.
