Brake Repair & Services

Driving a vehicle is not as easy as it seems, sometimes vehicle’s become the most difficult thing to handle. To avoid any unexpected or major breakdown situation you must have to maintain the vehicle, especially the brakes which are the most important and necessary part of the vehicle.

How Do Brakes Work?

Smooth steel discs called rotors are bolted to your vehicle’s wheels, and a heavy caliper encloses part of the rotor. The caliper houses the brake pads, which are lined with a hard semi-metallic or ceramic friction material so whenever you press the brake pedal, hydraulic pressure forces the pads against the rotor, stopping or slowing the car by friction.

Symptoms of Bad Brakes

Sometimes it’s a bit difficult to find out when your brakes might need servicing. But there are a few signs that can help you to diagnose brake issues.

1. When braking the vehicle has a pronounced pull to one side
2. While braking the vehicle has a noticeable pulsation or vibration through the brake pedal
3. While braking sometimes a tendency for one or more wheels to skid and lock up
4. The brake pedal goes farther toward the floor before the brakes engage
5. Underfoot, the brake pedal feels “soft” or “spongy”
6. Shimmy through the steering wheel
7. Squeal, groan, or metallic grinding noise
