How do I know when my car really needs a brake job?

Q)How do I know when my car really needs a brake job?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A)You need a "brake job" when your brake linings are worn down to the minimum acceptable thickness specified by the vehicle manufacturer or the applicable state agency in areas that set their own requirements. The only way to determine if new linings are required, therefore, is to inspect the brakes.
