Common signs your vehicle needs brake repair
Putting off addressing your vehicle’s brake issues can lead to more costly repairs. Any reputable auto mechanic will advise that you have your brakes inspected each year, or even sooner if you happen to notice any of the following conditions –
• Your brake warning light comes on
• You hear a grinding or squealing sound when braking
• Your rims and wheels begin appear dirtier than usual
• You feel a pulsation or sponginess when braking
• Your vehicle starts to shake or pulse when braking
Why is regularly scheduling brake service so essential? One word: Safety! In order to effectively stop your vehicle, your vehicle’s brakes should always be in excellent working order, not worn down to the rotors. We even stress having your brakes inspected a couple times a year. It’s easy! The next time you’re in for an oil change, just ask us and we’ll happily run an inspection! Considering that this is a system that you depend on each time you get behind the wheel, it is very important that you make sure not to neglect any brake issues. Remember, if you put off addressing braking issues, the repairs can be more costly.
Brake Components & Services We Provide
Anti-Lock Brake System
Anti-lock Brake Systems (ABS) ensure that a vehicle’s wheels don’t stop rotating during braking. This helps prevent the car from skidding and gives the driver greater control. If your ABS light, don’t ignore it, visit Discount Muffler, Brake & Automotive as soon as you can and we’ll give your vehicle’s system a FREE inspection.
Brake Hoses & Brake Fluid
A vehicle’s brake hose is a tube that carries pressurized brake fluid from the master cylinder to the brakes. It’s essential that this hose isn’t crushed because that can cause a lagged or slow brake. A leak in the hose can cause the brake, or the entire brake system, to fail. A brake hose isn’t something that necessarily needs to be replaced frequently, but it should be replaced at the first sign of cracking or wear and tear. If not, air can get into brake fluid which can cause it to become corosive over time. Ask one of our skilled technicians about having your brake fluid flushed today.
