Have you noticed that your brake pedal feels soft or spongy when you step on it? This could be caused by a problem with the pressure in your brake line. Having a faulty brake line is dangerous and can make your brakes less effective at stopping your vehicle.

A working brake line is filled with brake fluid. If there is a leak in the line, it lowers the fluid pressure, creating a soft feeling. Corrosion on the brake calipers or wheel cylinder can also cause a brake fluid leak. Sometimes air can get inside the brake line, hindering the flow of brake fluid. This will also create soft feeling brakes.

If your brake pedal feels soft when you step on it, it’s important to get your car inspected as soon as possible. Contact the qualified professionals in our service center here at Green Country Ford Inc. in Vinita, OK today to have your brake line inspected and serviced.
