What We Check During a Brake Inspection
Brake issues aren't always easy to spot while you're driving. That’s why our team takes the time to check the entire braking system when you bring your vehicle in. During a typical inspection, we look at:
- Brake pad condition and how much life is left
- Rotor wear, heat spots, or signs of warping
- Caliper operation and any sticking or uneven movement
- Brake fluid level and overall condition
- Signs of leaks, damaged lines, or cracked hoses
- Dashboard warnings linked to the brake or ABS system
Once we’ve gone through everything, we’ll walk you through the results and let you know what needs attention now and what’s okay to keep an eye on.
Signs You Might Need Brake Service
Brake issues can show up in different ways, and sometimes they’re easy to miss at first. Here are a few common signs that your brakes might need attention:
- Squeaking, grinding, or scraping sounds when stopping
- A soft pedal or one that sinks too far when pressed
- Vibration or shaking when you apply the brakes
- Brake or ABS warning lights showing up on the dash
Catching these signs early can help avoid more expensive repairs down the line. Bring your vehicle in, and we’ll let you know exactly what’s going on.
