By adhering to a regular maintenance schedule, you can identify and address potential issues before they become major problems.

Brakes should be inspected every 10,000 to 12,000 miles or annually. Regular checks help identify potential issues early, preventing costly repairs.
Warning signs include squeaking or grinding noises, a spongy brake pedal, vibrations during braking, longer stopping distances, and the brake warning light on your dashboard.
Brake pads typically last between 30,000 to 70,000 miles, depending on driving habits and the type of brake pads used. Regular inspections help determine when they need replacement.
Rotors can warp due to excessive heat, uneven wear, or aggressive driving. Proper maintenance and driving habits can prevent warping.
A soft brake pedal can be caused by air in the brake lines, low brake fluid, or a faulty master cylinder. Prompt diagnosis and repair are essential.
Driving with a brake fluid leak is dangerous and can lead to brake failure. If you suspect a leak, have your vehicle inspected and repaired immediately.
OEM parts are made by the vehicle’s manufacturer and are designed to fit and perform like the original parts. Aftermarket parts are made by third-party manufacturers and can vary in quality. We use high-quality parts to ensure reliable repairs.
The ABS system prevents wheel lockup during hard braking by modulating brake pressure, maintaining traction and control so you can steer while braking.
Our certified technicians, use of high-quality parts, commitment to customer satisfaction, and competitive pricing make us the ideal choice for your brake repair needs.
Regular maintenance, such as brake inspections and fluid exchanges, along with careful driving habits, can help extend the life of your brakes. Avoiding sudden stops and heavy braking also reduces wear.
