There are a roaring sound coming from my brakes when i reversed, how can it be remedy?

Question

I am driving a brand new renault megane, Barely 3 months thru driving, i heard roaring sound from my rear brakes whenever i reverse for parking lots. The renault mechanic claimed that their hard brakes generate more dust, thus cause the sound. Hence have to clean it frequently.. I never have this problem with other cars... Is that true?

Answer 1

if it is a new car then go back to the dealer and let them check it if you do not like the answer you get then go to a nother shop (not a back yard shop ) one with the grantee stamps ect... and get it checked again if there is a problem then get it fixed and take the papers to the first shop/dealer and let them pay for it it is under grantee right..

Answer 2

the breaks are not vented or drilled i bet. friction on the breaks actually does cause to dust or build up can even causes a harsh vibrations most people think its their tires. look for this next time u drive and if it has way too much friction then u will hear that (it might not be a problem). ask the mechanic for vented or drilled breaks (that's not the technical terms but its a lot easier to remember and ur point will be taken ) the problem with that is i cant tell with out seeing it for my self. any one reading this then please answer with a price of them

Answer 3

Your vehicle should be under warranty. Did the dealer clean the "dust" from the brake pads and rotor? If so did this stop the noise?. I would keep after the dealer and have them correct the problem.

Answer 4

he's right, the hard metallic compound that we are using to reduce the use of that pesky asbestos is noisy, the reason you hear it most when backing up is because that is when the brakes automatically tighten themselves to compensate for wear . so grit your teeth and plug your ears , there is no way around it .
