When applying the brakes there is a wheel screeching noise and car does not stop

Good morning,

I would not drive it until you have it examined and fixed.

It sounds like there is a problem with the pads contact with the rotor. It may not be making contact for some reason such as no lining left and the car will not slow down correctly.

can't be the pads. I changed them six months ago with a certified mechanic. I did not get any problems with the brakes all this time.

That was six months ago and this is now.

They need to check again as you have an issue somewhere with the application.

Roy

is it normal to have problem after six months of repair?

All depends on what brand parts were installed and the type of driving you do.

Is it normal? No, it is not. That is why it needs to be checked carefully.

Roy

What do you mean by type of driving?

Stop and start. Highway. Driving too fast and abusing the brakes to stop. Riding the brake pedal while driving.

Roy

I always ride on the brake pedal while driving.

That is not good. You should never ride the brakes at all. You are overheating them.

Roy

Really. I never got any problems with the brakes. I drove like this for nine years and never had brake problems, until now.

You need to have them checked.

Roy

Yes.

yes

Keep us updated.

Roy

yes okay.

Just want you to be safe driving.

Roy

Hi, mechanic told me that it was related with the gas pedal. when i remove my foot from it, it seemed that the gas pedal remain engaged and when I pressed the brake pedal the tires screech.

That means the brakes are locking up.

Did he repair it for you?

What was the repair?

Roy

Yes he has repaired it.

Okay, and all the noise is gone now and the fuel pedal is fixed?

Roy

yes, they are fixed.

Good. No more noise?
