Driving Fast All The Time
We get it, some people like driving fast. There’s a time and place to do so (not in places like residential neighborhoods with children around). But there are other reasons why you should take your time and not drive like a speed demon.
The problem is that repeated acceleration and braking are really bad for your suspension and tires. Both will wear down prematurely. So, if you want to avoid costly repairs, try to curb your excessive speeding.
Ignoring That Squealing Sound
When applying the brakes, you have undoubtedly heard a screech if you have been driving for a time. Or perhaps you are well aware of what we mean since you have experienced the sound of brakes squealing whilst in another person’s vehicle. Pay attention to the sound.
This usually indicates that you require new brake pads, which run about $200 on average. We say ‘only’ because if you wait until the brakes become severely damaged, a larger, potentially $2,000 repair job will ultimately be necessary.
