With disc brakes, brakes pad rub on a disc to slow the wheels, so it’s normal that they wear out eventually. Replacing pads is a straightforward repair, so if you’re hearing unusual sounds when you brake, or if your brake pedal is feeling spongy or too hard, bring your vehicle in and let us perform a brake inspection for you. Our technicians can inspect all the brake components and tell you if it’s time to replace the pads, the discs or any other component.
Some vehicles have disc brakes on the front, and drum brakes on the rear. Brakes are essential to your safety, and a thorough brake inspection will uncover any maintenance or repair issues that need to be addressed to keep you stopping safely.
A brake inspection will find problems early on, so if you have any concerns that may require a check-up, like abnormal noises, vibrations, or pulling, have us inspect your brake system. Some people ignore the warning signs and keep driving long after the brake pads are completely worn out. When that happens, metal backing of the brake pads will grind against the discs, damaging them enough that they will need to be replaced.
Regular disc inspections keep your brakes working safely, on top of helping you avoid costly brake component repairs in the future.
