What are the causes of automobile brake failure

Causes of automobile brake failure are: lack of necessary maintenance of the brake system, serious overloading, improper operation leading to mechanical failure.

One, the lack of necessary maintenance of the brake system, brake master cylinder too many impurities, sealing is not tight, vacuum booster pump failure, brake fluid is too dirty or several brake fluid mixed use of heat after the air resistance, brake master cylinder or sub-pump oil leakage, air tank or pipeline interface leakage;?

Two, due to severe overloading, under the action of gravitational acceleration, increasing the inertia of the vehicle movement, directly leading to brake failure.

Third, due to improper operation lead to mechanical failure, such as a long time downhill will make the brake pad friction heat, brake hub carbonization, brake function completely failed.

The normal operation of the car brake failure measures:

1, timely detection of the problem of slowing down and stopping

It is very important to develop good driving habits! Driving on a flat road should also pay attention to the brake situation, once found that the brake distance becomes longer, the brake does not work in a timely manner to pull over or slow down, can not continue to drive at high speeds. Vehicles traveling on the highway should stop in time for the emergency lane and call for assistance.

2, reasonable use of the handbrake control vehicle

In the encounter continuous downhill section or sharp downhill section, it is best to tap the brakes, pull the handbrake must pay attention to can not be pulled to the end of the handbrake or pull too fast, that is prone to cause handbrake damage malfunction, should be slow and hard, and slowly will be pulled to the end of the handbrake.

3, appropriate gear control speed

If the handbrake deceleration is slow or handbrake failure, you should try to use the mandatory gear reduction (commonly known as grabbing gears) method to slow down the car with low gears, so that the car slowed down and then with the use of the handbrake, and slowly stop the car.
