Some Mazda B3000 owners report experiencing pulsating brakes, which may indicate issues with warped or worn brake rotors that require replacement or resurfacing. Additionally, some owners notice brake noise during slow braking, often caused by front rotors being out of parallel, which can be resolved by machining the rotors. Furthermore, a soft or mushy brake pedal is reported by some owners, suggesting potential problems such as trapped air in the brake system, loss of hydraulic pressure, contaminated brake fluid, or worn brake components. These issues can significantly affect the vehicle's stopping power. It is recommended that owners seek a thorough inspection of the brake system by a qualified mechanic to diagnose and address these concerns, ensuring optimal braking performance and safety.
