Why Brake Service Matters
Your brakes are crucial for your safety and the smooth operation of your vehicle. Whether it’s a squeaky sound, grinding, or a soft brake pedal, these are all signs that your brake system might need attention. Regular brake service helps prevent more serious issues and ensures you’re driving safely. At our shop, we specialize in brake repair, including pads and rotors, to keep your car stopping on a dime.
Signs You Need Brake Repair
Pay attention to your vehicle’s braking performance. If you notice any of these signs, it might be time for brake repair:
- Squeaking or Squealing: High-pitched noises usually indicate that your brake pads are worn out and need replacing.
- Grinding: If you hear a grinding noise, it’s likely that your brake pads are completely worn out and you’re grinding against the rotors.
- Soft or Spongy Pedal: A soft or spongy brake pedal can mean there’s air in the brake lines or a problem with your brake fluid.
- Vibration or Shaking: If you feel vibrations when braking, your rotors might be warped or uneven.
Brake Pads: Essential for Stopping Power
Brake pads play a crucial role in stopping your vehicle. They apply friction to the rotors, slowing down your car. Over time, brake pads wear down and need to be replaced. We offer a range of high-quality brake pads to suit different driving styles and vehicle types. Our experts will help you choose the right ones for your car, ensuring optimal performance and safety.
Rotors: What They Do and When to Replace Them
Rotors work with your brake pads to stop your car. They’re the metal discs that your brake pads clamp down on to create friction. Over time, rotors can become worn, warped, or scored, which can affect braking performance. If your rotors are damaged, they need to be resurfaced or replaced. We inspect your rotors during brake service and recommend the best solution to keep your braking system in top shape.
