Well why don't you go check that before your brakes go out and you die.

I would check the brake caliper bracket. A clicking sound during braking is an indication of a loose brake component. Usually the most common part that is likely to cause this kind of brake problem is the brake caliper bracket. Remove the wheel and check for loose components, visually, physically and wrench over each bolt to see which one is loose. Hence, if you cannot identify the cause of the problem you're better to bring you car to a reputable auto repair shop. Take care of this problem at once to avoid a much bigger problem that may arise!!!
