Book a Brake Inspection Today!
When it comes to keeping your vehicle safe, your brakes do a lot of the heavy lifting. Whether you're stopping at a busy Rockford intersection or pulling onto 251 in traffic, you need a braking system you can count on. At Butitta Auto in Rockford, we offer expert brake inspections and repairs to help keep you (and everyone else on the road) safe.
Do You Need Brake Service? Here’s What to Watch For
Your brakes won’t always fail all at once. Most of the time, they’ll give you little warning signs along the way. If you hear squealing or grinding, feel vibrations when you hit the brake pedal, or notice the car pulling to one side while slowing down, it’s time to get them checked out. Even a soft or spongy pedal can point to worn pads, air in the brake lines, or low fluid levels. No matter what’s going on, we’re here to figure it out.
What’s Included in a Brake Inspection?
Every brake inspection at our Rockford shops is handled by experienced technicians who know what to look for. We inspect your brake pads and rotors, check brake lines and fluid levels, and take a good look at your calipers and master cylinder. If something’s worn, cracked, or leaking, we’ll spot it. You’ll get a clear explanation of what we find and honest recommendations about what needs fixing and what can wait.
