* Reduced braking power: Air in the brake line can reduce the amount of pressure that is applied to the brake pads, which can make it difficult to stop the vehicle.
* Sponginess: Air in the brake line can also cause the brake pedal to feel spongy or soft, which can make it difficult to control the brakes.
* Noise: Air in the brake line can also cause a hissing or gurgling noise when the brakes are applied.
In addition, air in the brake line can also cause the brakes to lock up, which can be dangerous. If you suspect that there is air in your brake lines, you should have the brake system inspected and repaired by a qualified mechanic as soon as possible.
Here are some tips for preventing air from getting into the brake lines:
* When changing the brake fluid, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
* Do not let the brake fluid reservoir run dry.
* Inspect the brake lines regularly for leaks.
* Have the brake system inspected and serviced by a qualified mechanic on a regular basis.
By following these tips, you can help to prevent air from getting into the brake lines and ensure that your brakes are working properly.
