hello,

my car seems to be making a scraping sound only in reverse. it sounds like it is coming form the front of the car. the slower i go in reverse the slower the scraping noise, apply the brakes and it stops.

seeing it only does it in reverse do that brakes need to be replaced all around? any info would be great. thanks and have a great day!

Hi mymusic1971,

Most probably the front disc pads are running ow and the indicator is touching the rotors, get the brakes checked.
