Brake problems?

Okay everytime Im on idle or driving/cruising my front wheels are always clanking or making a sound all the time and when I brake I always feel a grind and it gets louder as it brakes. Its so scratchy I can't stand it. Could it be the brakes needing fluid? What could it be?

time for brake pads ,and maybe rotors now! the grind you hear might be your worn out pads grinding on the rotors , bad, bad ! metal to metal grind sound bad . get it checked out! good luck!

Easy way for you to check it is take the front wheel off and see if you see any pads at all. If you don't, or if you see your rotors all scratched up and have grooves in them, it is a pretty good bet that you'll need new pads and rotors.
