Book a Brake Inspection Today!

Your brakes are one of the most important safety features on your vehicle, and when something feels off, it's not something to ignore. At Springdale Automotive in Louisville, KY, we handle all types of brake repairs, from worn-out pads to hydraulic issues. If you’re hearing squeaks, grinding, or your car just isn’t stopping like it used to, we’ll get to the bottom of it.

Signs You Might Need Brake Service

Brakes often give you a few warning signs before they become a serious problem. Keep an eye (and ear) out for:

  • Squealing or grinding noises when you stop
  • A soft or spongy brake pedal
  • Vibration or pulsing when braking
  • Your car pulling to one side
  • A brake warning light on the dash

If you’re noticing any of these, it’s time to have things checked out.

What We Check During a Brake Inspection

When you bring your car in, our technicians take a close look at the entire brake system. That includes pads and rotors, brake fluid condition, calipers, brake lines, and the master cylinder. We’ll let you know what’s worn, what’s working fine, and what needs attention now or soon.
