Pulling to One Side

[Reginald Javier]

I replaced my brakes on Tuesday, after realizing my right front brake was going to give out.



Now, I realize that there's a pulling to the left side when braking. What's happening and is it worth it to go back to have them fix this?



I am thinking that they replaced both brakes on my fronts wheels.



Thanks, RJ

Yes get it fixed...either the left caliper is sticking or the abs is not functioning on the left front...

I agree with Fas Eddie. It sounds like they did something wrong or did not properly diagnose the original problem. If your brakes do not wear fairly evenly from side to side, It usually indicates that a caliper is sticking. The sticking can be caused by burrs, dirt or no lubrication on the caliper slides and pins, or it can be internal corrosion and pitting of the piston bores.



Get it checked out.

Ok, I've scheduled a recheck for Monday.



The service advisor did not give me any qualms about it.



Thanks.
