Benefiting From Brake Service

Brakes are an essential aspect of your vehicle's ability to drive safely. As we're taught before we get our driver's license, braking early to avoid any potential collisions or other on-road accidents is at the forefront of our minds with each drive. If your brakes are acting differently than usual, you heighten the risk for brake failure.

Brake pads serve as one of the key components of the braking system. Brake pads are designed to gradually wear over time, thus affecting other parts of the brake system like calipers, rotors, and drums. When either of these components receives damage, your car will need to be brought into our shop for repairs.

Signs Your Brakes need Service 

Brakes are unique in that, compared to other components of your car, they carry several unmistakable sounds and physical signs pointing to a problem with the system. If you've driven for several years, you're likely to have noticed one or two of these warning signs in your current or previous car. These include:

  • A squealing noise when driving: If you hear faint squealing or buzzing while you drive, yet the noise goes away when you press on the brakes, this is likely the wear indicators scraping against the rotor.
  • The car pulls to one side when braking: It's common for your brake pads to wear at different rates. When this happens, your car will pull to the left or right when braking due to one-sided brake pad wear.
  • Braking takes longer than normal: Sometimes referred to as a 'brake fade,' this symptom will appear for drivers who overuse their brakes. The more the brakes are improperly used, the faster the pads degrade.

You may have experienced these brake-related symptoms, or you may notice a slight change in their overall performance. Regardless, we want to keep you safe wherever you travel. Reach out to us if you notice any issues with your braking.

Get Caught Up With Routine Maintenance

This includes anything from routine maintenance, to topping off your car's fluids, to completing other, small repairs unrelated to the brake system. Whatever you need, our trained and certified technicians can help with.
