Brakes may need adjustment to ensure they function optimally, as improper alignment can lead to decreased performance, increased stopping distances, and uneven wear on brake components. Additionally, brake pads can settle or wear unevenly over time, causing the brakes to feel spongy or unresponsive. Regular adjustments help maintain safety and prolong the lifespan of the braking system. Overall, proper brake adjustment enhances vehicle safety and performance.
