From basic brake pad replacements to complete hydraulic system overhauls, our certified technicians will ensure your vehicle stops safely and reliably every time.

Signs You May Need Brake Service

Brake problems rarely fix themselves. Ignoring early symptoms can result in longer stopping distances and more expensive repairs down the road.

Here are common warning signs:

Squealing or grinding when braking
Soft or spongy brake pedal
Vibration or pulsing in the steering wheel
Brake warning light on
Vehicle pulling to one side while stopping
Burning smell during or after braking
Visible brake fluid leaks near tires

If you notice any of these symptoms, let our team perform a professional brake inspection.

What’s Included in a Brake Inspection?

When you bring your vehicle to our Addison location, we’ll conduct a full brake system evaluation, including:

Measuring brake pad and rotor thickness
Inspecting calipers, lines, and hoses
Checking for leaks in the brake master cylinder
Reviewing brake fluid level and condition
Testing pedal response and brake balance
Identifying signs of uneven wear or warped rotors

After the inspection, we’ll provide a written estimate with recommended services and explain everything clearly before we begin any work.

Why Brake Fluid Service Matters

Brake fluid is often overlooked, but it’s critical to safe braking. Over time, fluid absorbs moisture, which can reduce braking power and cause internal corrosion.

We recommend brake fluid flushes:

Every 2–3 years, or
Every 30,000 miles, or
As soon as fluid tests dirty or contaminated

Our brake fluid service includes full flushing of the hydraulic system and bleeding all air from the lines to restore solid pedal feel and consistent stopping power.

Brake Services for All Vehicle Types

Our Addison shop works on:

Cars, trucks, and SUVs
Domestic and foreign makes

Whether you drive a commuter car or a heavy-duty truck, we’ll tailor the repair to your vehicle and driving habits.

Do I Need New Rotors or Just Pads?

It depends on the thickness and condition of your rotors. If they’re below the minimum spec, warped, or heavily grooved, they need to be replaced.

In many cases, rotors can be resurfaced instead of replaced — saving you money. We’ll measure them accurately and give you both options when available.

Brake Warning Light On?

If your brake light or ABS light is illuminated, it may be caused by:

Low fluid
Worn brake pads triggering a sensor
Faulty ABS module
Failed wheel speed sensor
Damaged wiring or connectors

We’ll scan your system and pinpoint the exact issue so you can stop safely and confidently.
