It’s hard to overestimate the importance of a vehicle’s braking system. If you can’t stop your car reliably, you aren’t really safe when you’re out on the road. So, it’s crucial that you keep up with regular brake maintenance and bring your vehicle in for service at the first sign of trouble. As long as you don’t procrastinate on keeping up with your maintenance schedule and act quickly when you notice anything strange, you can drive with confidence wherever you go.
You can get all of your brake repair and maintenance taken care of here at Scrubway Wash & Lube. Our skilled technicians can diagnose any mysterious issues and either fix or replace parts that aren’t getting the job done. In addition to quality repairs, we also offer competitive prices and quick turnaround so that you can keep your car, truck, van, or SUV in tip-top shape, no matter your schedule or budget.
We Can Replace Pads, Rotors, and Brake Fluid
Our team can handle routine brake services efficiently, and we make sure to offer competitive prices on these common maintenance visits. Brake pads and rotors are important components that are worn down more and more every time you hit the brakes because of the friction required to bring a vehicle to a stop. Brake pads need to be replaced eventually, and how long they last can vary anywhere from 25,000 to 50,000 miles, depending on how you drive, how much you drive, and other factors. If you hear a squeaking sound while braking, it’s probably time to get them replaced. Rotors are a little hardier—they can be resurfaced a few times to make them last longer. But after a while, they’ll need to be replaced as well.
Another component of the system is brake fluid. Having the proper amount of brake fluid in your vehicle keeps your brakes working properly, which keeps you safe. This fluid needs to be replaced at regular intervals (about every 40,000-45,000 miles or every two years, whichever comes first) to keep your vehicle in good working order. Come to us for a brake fluid flush during the recommended intervals suggested for your vehicle or when you notice any leaks, noisy brakes, or reduced braking power, all of which may be signs of an issue with your brake fluid.
We Handle Larger Jobs Like Rebuilding Calipers and Replacing Brake Lines
While some parts of your braking system are expected to wear down over time, others are expected to last longer. Brake lines are expected to have about the same lifespan as a car, but unfortunately, that’s not always the case. Like any physical object, they can deteriorate, corrode, or get damaged. If that happens, you need to act fast and get them replaced right away. And since it’s such an important job, you’ll want to work with a trusted and reputable service center like us. We can also replace damaged calipers or handle more obscure brake problems that may arise.
