Signs your brakes need attention
Brakes usually give warning before they fail. Call us if you notice:
- Squealing, squeaking or grinding when you brake
- A soft, spongy or sinking brake pedal
- The vehicle pulling to one side when braking
- Vibration in the pedal or steering wheel when stopping
- Longer stopping distances than you are used to
- A brake warning light on the dashboard
Brake check
A brake check is a good habit even when nothing feels wrong. It is also part of our regular maintenance services, so you can have your brakes looked at during a routine visit. A quick look can show how much life your brakes have left so repairs can be planned instead of rushed.
Brake replacement
When your brakes are worn, we can replace them. Because every vehicle is different, give us a call and tell us about your car. We will look at what it needs and talk through the options before any work begins.

Why not put off brake work?
Worn brakes take longer to stop your vehicle and can damage other brake parts the longer they are driven. Taking care of them early is safer and often less expensive than waiting.
Habits that help your brakes last
How you drive affects how long your brakes last. Leave plenty of room between you and the vehicle ahead, slow down early instead of braking hard at the last second, and do not ignore new noises or changes in pedal feel. Small changes in how the brakes behave are often the first sign that service is due.
Before a long trip or a season change
A brake check is a smart step before a long drive or a change in weather. Our posts on staying safe on long road trips and our summer car care checklist cover other items worth checking at the same time.
