What does it mean?
A brake force imbalance means brakes on the same axle are not producing equal braking force. Causes can include wear, seized components or faults in the brake system. The inspection note does not confirm the cause.
What should I ask a workshop?
Ask a workshop to check the brakes, identify which axle is affected and provide an itemized repair estimate.
Safety note
Braking issues are safety-critical. Follow any driving restrictions and ask how to transport the vehicle for repairs.
What about re-inspection?
In Finland, re-inspection is generally required within one month of a failed inspection if you want the defects reviewed without repeating the entire inspection. This does not establish driving permission. Check the actual decision and current official requirements.
