• You notice a grinding or squealing sound when applying the brake pedal
• Your rims and wheels begin look dirtier than normal
• You feel a pulsation or sponginess while braking
• Your vehicle starts to shake or pulse while you’re braking

In order to effectively stop your vehicle, your vehicle’s brakes should always be in top condition. not worn down to the rotors. We even advise having your brakes inspected at least twice a year. This is easy to do. The next time you’re in for an oil change, just ask us and we’ll gladly run an inspection!

Remember, if you wait to address your braking issues, the repairs can be more costly.
Brake Components & Services We Provide
Anti-Lock Brake System
Your vehicle’s Anti-lock Brake Systems (ABS) ensures that the wheels don’t stop rotating during braking. This helps prevent the car from skidding allowing the driver greater control. If your ABS light comes on, stop in to 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 of upmost importance 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 very often, but it should be replaced at the first sign of cracking or wear and tear. Otherwise, air can get into brake fluid over time which can cause it to become corrosive. Ask one of our skilled technicians about having your brake fluid flushed today.

These guys just saved me $1500 on an exhaust manifold repair. I was quoted by another shop they would have to pull the engine to replace broken manifold bolts. Discount muffler fixed them by other means. THESE GUYS ARE AWESOME! Great to have an honest shop to rely on. Will return for all my service.
Our daughter’s car need drive belts and front brakes. After getting quotes elsewhere, this company provided an expected reason price and did not demand necessary work be performed on the car. Joe even drove my wife to and from his place of business! They replaced the tie-rod (front passenger side) of which was suspect of being an issue prior to bringing the car to them.
They resolved all issues within a day and our daughter has her car back with reliable operations. So glad we learned about this place!
