What Can Happen During Brake Service?

What takes place during brake service will depend on your vehicle and the current condition of your brake system. When you schedule service, you should let the technician know if you have any concerns or if you just want a brake inspection to rule out any hidden damage. After an inspection, a technician will usually perform one or more of these types of brake service:

  • Change brake fluid/fix fluid leaks: It’s common to need new brake fluid every two years. If there’s a brake fluid leak, it needs to be repaired as soon as possible.
  • Service the brake rotors: Driving with worn brake pads can cause damage to the rotors.
  • Replace the brake pads: Replacing brake pads is simple and inexpensive. Most drivers need new brake pads every 20,000 to 80,000 miles.
  • Replace or repair any part of the system that is damaged: Depending on your type of vehicle and its condition, your brake system may need different types of repairs or new parts.

If you don’t know what type of brake service your vehicle needs, we suggest getting started with a brake inspection. A multi-point brake inspection is a great way to stay informed about the condition of your brake system.

When to Schedule Brake Service

Routine brake service is key to preventing a damaged brake system. Many technicians recommend a brake inspection at least once a year or as soon as you notice a change in your brakes’ performance. Common signs of brake damage to look out for include:

  • Your brake pedal feels strange, soft, or spongy
  • There’s a squealing, grinding, or other new noise when you brake
  • Your car pulls to one side when you brake
  • It takes longer for your car to slow or stop
  • You notice a vibrating or shaking sensation when you apply the brakes
  • Your brake fluid is leaking

If you notice any of these issues, you should schedule brake service immediately. It’s dangerous to drive with a damaged or worn-down brake system, so addressing the problem quickly is of the utmost importance.
