Owner Checks And Services - GMC 1994 Yukon Owner's Manual

25. BRAKE SYSTEM INSPECTION?
-
When the engine oil is
changed, inspect the lines and hoses for proper hookup, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Check the parking brake adjust, and the fluid level
in the master cylinder. A low fluid level can indicate worn disc brake
pads which may need to be serviced.
When the wheels are removed for rotation, inspect disc brake pads for
wear and rotors for surface condition. Also inspect drum brake linings
for wear and cracks. Inspect other brake parts, including drums, wheel
cylinders, parking brake, etc., at the same time. Remove any rust or dirt
from the wheel and mounting surfaces before mounting the wheel.
Inspect brakes more often if driving habits or conditions result in
frequent braking.
