Brakes problem
2000 Chevy Malibu 6 cyl Automatic 79,800 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
Since three days ago, my car is making like a grumbling noise most of the time I press the brake pedal. I found that the brake fluid level is low, but not empty. What is the cause of the problem? Which part or parts would need replacement?

Hi there,

It sounds as if you have run out of brake pads, you will have to check the front & rear brakes. Do this asap.
