Soft Brake Pedal

• Experiencing a soft brake pedal is an extremely
  significant problem with your brakes. If your
  brake pedal feels spongy, as if you're stepping
  on a soft fruit like a plum, and requires pumping
  to achieve proper stopping, or if the pedal sinks
  to the floor with minimal resistance, it
  indicates a hazardous situation. It is crucial
  that you do not continue driving in such
  circumstances. Continuing to drive could lead to
  a collision within a matter of minutes.

Car Pulls to One Side When Braking

• Experiencing a car that veers to one side can be
  both frustrating and hazardous. This
  brake-related issue can stem from various
  factors, including tire problems (as outlined
  below). However, the most common culprit is a
  frozen caliper. Gradually, over time, a caliper
  can become seized, often without immediate
  detection.

Steering Wheel Shakes While Brakes Applied

• Experiencing steering wheel vibrations when
  applying brakes at highway speeds is a widespread
  brake issue across various vehicle makes and
  models.
• Several factors can contribute to this shaking
  sensation. The primary causes include warped
  front rotors, hot spots (minor irregularities) on
  the rotors resulting from excessive heat, or the
  presence of pad impressions. When a car remains
  stationary for extended periods, moisture from
  rain or high humidity can cause the rotors to
  rust, except for the specific area where the
  brake pads make contact.
