Braking System Braking System Design The hydraulic system that operates the brakes has two separate circuits. Each circuit works diagonally across the vehicle (the left-front brake is connected with the right-rear brake, etc.). If one circuit should develop a problem, you will still have braking at two wheels. The following features are also equipped: Creep Aid System TOC With the shift lever in D, S or L, this feature applies brake pressure briefly as you release the brake pedal to prevent the vehicle from moving unexpectedly. Brake-Assist Brake Pad Wear Indicators If the brake pads need replacing, you will hear a distinctive, metallic screeching sound when you apply the brake pedal. If you do not have the brake pads replaced, they will screech all the time. It is normal for the brakes to occasionally squeal or squeak when you apply them. Before Driving This feature helps you apply the brakes with less force during an emergency braking situation. 286 2014 Insight
