FAQs

What causes brake failure?

Brake failure can be caused by several factors, including worn brake pads or shoes, damaged or corroded brake lines, air in the brake lines, and malfunctioning components like the master cylinder or slack adjusters. Overheating due to excessive use or heavy loads can also lead to brake failure.

How often should I have my brakes inspected?

It is recommended to have your brakes inspected at least once a year or every 20,000 to 30,000 miles, whichever comes first. Regular inspections help detect wear and tear early, preventing more serious issues and ensuring your vehicle remains safe on the road.

Brought my vehicle in to them to check my heater in my car. It was quickly diagnosed as a burned out heater core, then received my quote on the repair costs. After giving them the go ahead, the technicians were able to have it all fixed early and even a little bit under the quote! Awesome experience with this shop!
