Signs Your Brakes Might Need Attention

Recognizing the signs of brake wear is crucial for maintaining your vehicle's safety. Here are some common indicators that you may need new brakes:

Squeaking or Squealing Noise: This is often the first sign that your brake pads are wearing thin.
Grinding Sound: If you hear grinding, it may indicate that the brake pads are completely worn out, and the metal is contacting the rotor.
Vibration When Braking: This could be a sign of warped rotors.
Longer Stopping Distances: If your vehicle takes longer to stop, it may be time for a brake inspection.

Christian Brothers Comprehensive Brake Inspection

Our comprehensive brake inspection at Christian Brothers Automotive Katy Westgreen includes:

Checking the thickness of brake pads
Inspecting rotors for wear and damage

Testing brake fluid levels and condition

Our detailed inspection ensures that every component of your braking system is functioning correctly, providing you with the confidence to drive safely.

How Often Should You Replace Your Brakes?

The frequency of brake replacement can vary based on driving habits and conditions. However, a general guideline is to have your brake pads inspected every 10,000 to 20,000 miles and replaced every 30,000 to 70,000 miles. Regular inspections can help identify issues before they become serious, ensuring your safety on the road.

How Often Should You Change Your Brake Fluid?

Brake fluid is a vital component of your braking system, and its condition should not be overlooked. We recommend changing your brake fluid every 20,000 to 45,000 miles or as specified in your vehicle's owner manual. Regular brake fluid changes help maintain optimal braking performance and prevent corrosion within the system.

By scheduling routine inspections and addressing issues promptly, you can prevent costly repairs and ensure your safety on the road.
