Dirt, heat, moisture, and wear and tear are the cause of most brake problems. One of our technicians will inspect your entire brake system and brake pad replacement. Then, we’ll show you what your brake problem is before correcting it with our quality parts and service.
With disc brakes the brake fluid pressure forces the brake pads against the rotor to slow and stop the wheels. Drum brakes operate on the same basic principle. As the brake fluid pressure builds, it causes the brake shoes to press against the brake drum to slow and stop the wheels.
