change your brake pads!

while driving the **** out of my car sunday i was pretty hard on the brakes and toasted the rears, the screeching was bad but then it got worse. i slammed the brakes before a turn then going into the next turn the peddle went to the floor so im like ****!. it started screeching realy bad and i had shitty brakes for the rest of the drive and they were constantly dragging. after we were done i got out and looked at it and the pad had fallen out and got wedged between the caliper and the rotor, im suprized it didnt lock up. i had to drive 130 miles home with it screeching the whole way.

if your pads start getting low make sure you change them before they are gone as this could cause some serious damage!
