Signs of Brake Problems

Recognizing the early signs of brake issues can prevent costly repairs and ensure your safety. Here are some common indicators that your brakes may need attention:

  • Squeaking or Squealing Noises: These sounds often indicate worn brake pads that need replacement.
  • Grinding Sounds: This could mean that the brake pads are completely worn out, causing metal-to-metal contact.
  • Vibration or Pulsation: If you feel a vibration when applying the brakes, it might be due to warped rotors.
  • Longer Stopping Distances: If your vehicle takes longer to stop, it could be a sign of brake system issues.
  • Brake Warning Light: An illuminated brake warning light on your dashboard should never be ignored.

The Importance of Regular Brake Checks

Regular brake inspections are crucial for ensuring your vehicle's safety and optimal performance on the road. At Christian Brothers Automotive Holland, we recommend scheduling a brake inspection at least once a year or every 12,000 miles. Routine checks help identify potential issues early, preventing costly repairs and keeping your braking system in top condition for maximum safety.

Our Thorough Brake Service Process

At Christian Brothers Automotive Holland, we follow a detailed, step-by-step approach to ensure your braking system is in top condition for your safety. Here’s how we perform our thorough brake service process:

  1. Initial Inspection: We conduct a visual inspection of the brake pads, rotors, brake lines, fluid levels, and overall brake performance to identify any issues.
  2. Brake Pad and Rotor Evaluation: We assess the condition of your brake pads and rotors. If they’re worn or warped, we recommend replacement or resurfacing.
  3. Brake Fluid Check and Replacement: We check the brake fluid for contamination and replace it if necessary to maintain optimal braking performance.
  4. Brake Line Inspection: We inspect brake lines for wear or leaks to ensure they’re in good condition, as faulty lines can impact braking ability.
  5. Test Drive and Brake System Performance Test: After repairs, we perform a test drive and brake system test to verify everything is working correctly.
  6. Final Check and Quality Assurance: We conduct a final inspection to ensure all components are functioning properly, providing a smooth, safe driving experience.
