Brake service is not just a vehicle maintenance service you have to perform regularly. It is an essential step for properly maintaining your vehicle, one that can never be ignored. Brake repair and maintenance service is crucial for preserving the quality of your brakes and the reliability of your vehicle for many years.

 

Thankfully, brake issues are usually easy to spot, since they are usually accompanied by your vehicle’s brake light coming on, or an unusual noise or feeling when braking.

 

If for some reason you have a feeling that your brakes aren’t working properly, or if they exhibit any of the warning signs listed below, do not hesitate to contact Z Auto Service in Englewood for a FREE brake inspection. It takes only a few minutes for us to check them and make sure you are safe to drive. The safety of you and your family is always our top priority.

Brake System Warning Signs:

  • Dashboard’s brake light is on
  • Unusual noise or sound when braking: squealing, grinding
  • Brake pedal requires more power to stop
  • Vibration or shaking when braking
  • Low or hard brake pedal
  •  

Nevertheless, you should have your brakes and other components checked every time your vehicle gets an oil change, just to make sure everything is safe to drive.

 

Occasionally, a brake system’s squeaker, which tells that your brake pads have worn down, was completely broken. If this happens, it’s both unsafe for you to drive and harder for you to know that your brakes are no longer working. That’s why inspecting and maintaining your braking system regularly is so important.

 

Here at Z Auto Service, we always do a visual safety inspection every time we work on your car, whether we’re performing brake services or other repairs. Again, your safety comes first.

CO Brake Service

Here at Z Auto Service, we always do a visual safety inspection every time we work on your car, whether we’re performing brake services or other repairs. Again, your safety comes first.

Brake service includes:

  • Complete front and rear brake inspection

  • Replacement of brake system hardware

  • Replacement of brake pads or shoes, if needed

  • Cleaning and lubrication of nonreplaceable parts

  • Machining rotors or drums if possible

  • Test driving your vehicle

Sometimes your brakes may get spongy when pressing on them. Your system is hydraulic, so the brake liquid wears out due to braking too often, or high moisture, temperature, or altitude.

New Brake Pads vs. Metal-to-Metal:

No Pad to Stop the Car. Very Dangerous!

When your brake pads wear down completely, you’re left with metal-to-metal contact between the caliper and rotor. This means there’s no pad left to stop your car, putting you at serious risk. Metal-to-metal braking not only increases the chance of an accident but can also cause extensive damage to your braking system, leading to costly repairs. Don’t wait—if you hear squealing or notice a decrease in braking performance, get your pads checked and replaced immediately! Stay safe on the road.
