Question:
My brake light has been coming on and going off all week long. I started my car this evening to go home. When I stopped at a sign, I had to depress my brake all the way to the floor board before it even began to slow down. There has also been a strange sound for a few weeks when my car stops that sounds like something grinding. I have fairly new brakes and roders. What is the problem? Also, what else can I look forward to going wrong?

The soft pedal and brake warning light are indications that your brake fluid level is low.what should the spark plug gap be set on an 1988 chevy S10?
The grinding sound indicates that all of the friction material has worn off your brake linings and now the metal backing plate is grinding on the rotor or drum. If brakes were recently done I would suspect that you may have a siezed brake caliper causing premature wear or its the brakes on the axle that were not serviced that are grinding.

You need to bleed your breaks. Air in the brake lines will cause this to happen. If that does not take care of the problem then you may need a master cylinder. Brake dust can cause a grinding sound. If you are not in the position to inspect your car take it to a shop that deals with brakes and they can assist you. I would take care of this asap.My car is making a tapping sound and i dont know what it is, PLEASE HELP!!?
