What is recommended to ensure proper maintenance of your vehicle's brakes?

Only replace brakes when they become noisy
Have the brakes inspected regularly
Only check brakes if experiencing problems
Run the vehicle at higher speeds to test brakes

The correct answer is: Have the brakes inspected regularly

Having the brakes inspected regularly is essential for the safety and performance of your vehicle. Regular inspections allow mechanics to identify and address any issues before they escalate into more significant, potentially dangerous problems. Brakes are a critical component of vehicle safety, and wear can occur gradually. Regular inspections help catch wear and tear, uneven wear patterns, or the buildup of contaminants that could affect braking efficiency. This proactive approach can ensure that the braking system remains in good working order, enhancing not only your safety but also the safety of other road users. In contrast, waiting for brakes to become noisy or only checking them when problems arise can lead to brake failure, which can result in accidents or costly repairs. Running the vehicle at higher speeds to test the brakes is also not a safe practice, as it subjects the vehicle to unnecessary risks and does not provide a reliable assessment of brake effectiveness. Regular maintenance is key to preventing serious issues down the line.
