I'm going to say the secondary (facing rearward) lining on dual-servo drum brake does more work than the primary (facing forward) lining because the rear lining is almost always longer than the front lining to compensate for more wear.
Most likely warped brake discs
Yes, friction is essential for braking as it helps to slow down a moving vehicle by creating a resistance force between the brake pads and the wheels. The greater the friction between the brake components, the more effective the braking force will be.
You should use the front brake on a motorcycle for optimal braking performance and control in most situations, as it provides the majority of the stopping power. However, it is important to also use the rear brake in conjunction with the front brake to maintain stability and prevent skidding.
The foot brake typically first applies its force on the rear brake cylinder. In most hydraulic brake systems, the force from the brake pedal is transmitted to the rear brake cylinders before affecting the front ones, allowing for a more balanced braking effect. This prioritization helps to prevent skidding and maintains vehicle stability during braking.
the parking brake is either sticking or the sensor is bad This could also be a warning that there is something wrong with the braking system. The light is not only for the parking brake in most vehicles.
4 time ASE certified tech here, warped front brake rotors will make your brake pedal pulsate and steering wheel shake when braking. most noticed when moderate braking at 40 - 50 mph.
The Electronic Brake assist System (EBS) is a very efficient aid in emergency braking situations when the driver wants the vehicle to stop as quickly as possible. In these situations, most drivers apply the brake fast, but not with the maximum pressure, and this insufficient braking power leads to dangerously long braking distances. The system is triggered when the brake assist recognizes the fast and hard braking by the driver classified as typical 'emergency braking' and activates the maximum braking power immediately. Therefore even moderate pedal force leads to maximum deceleration. This can help avoid an accident or reduce its seriousness, due to decreased vehicle speed at the moment of collision.
ABS = Anti-Lock Brake SystemIf you have this light come on while not braking, it most likely means there is a problem with the electronic controls in your brakes. If it comes on while you are braking, it means the Anti-Lock has kicked in. It should only do that however, if you are braking really hard.
A car shaking while applying brakes is most likely caused by worn a brake pad. Check the brake system at all four wheels to find the problem.
if it is vibration when braking, it is most likely warped brake discs ,which can be skimmed using a lathe or by replacing. if it is vibration when not braking & coming off the power it could be wear in an inner cv joint
Do not brake suddenly you might spin. Apply light braking at most. Grip the steering wheel firmly, and duide your car to the side of the road.
There is no set mileage which tells you when to get new brake pads. Wear on the brake pads depend on various factors, most importantly the braking habits of the driver. Front brakes wear out faster the the rear brakes. If there is a noise when you brake or you feel grinding, then you should bring your vehicle to the mechanic.
