How to Care for Your Brakes

We don’t have to tell you just how important your brakes are, which is why it’s crucial to stay atop regular brake maintenance. Replacing the brake fluid, resurfacing the rotors, adjusting certain mechanisms, inspecting all major components, and bleeding the brakes on an as-needed basis is a handful of the most common maintenance items we perform in our auto shop. The exact intervals for such services depend on your vehicle, but each can be found in your owner’s manual or by giving our team a call for assistance. Additionally, you can practice certain driving habits that will help prolong your brakes’ life. Try to avoid sudden and heavy braking (except for emergency situations), drive with the flow of traffic, give yourself ample following distance, and remove unnecessary weight from your vehicle.

Overview of Common Brake Problems

If something were to go wrong in your brake system, your stopping power—and your safety—can be severely compromised. A common brake problem we see is worn brake pads. When pads wear, friction between the plate and rotors is imminent, as is damage to the rotors and calipers. These same rotors are prone to warping, leading to the need for resurfacing or even replacing. Master cylinder leaks, frozen brake calipers, blown brake lines, worn shoes, electrical problems, and faulty parts are a sampling of issues that are common with brakes. Rest assured that we will properly inspect, diagnose, and treat your brake problem when you visit our repair facility. We will even walk you through every step of the brake repair process and address your questions along the way for full transparency.
