Generally, automotive manufacturers recommend that you have your vehicle’s brakes inspected every 20,000 miles, but it’s important to check your owner’s manual for the specific recommendation for your automobile. When it’s time for a brake check, bring your vehicle into our shop. At Eagle Automotive & Transmission, we’ll inspect the brake system thoroughly and give it the overhaul it deserves to keep it and you safe on the road.
Brake System Maintenance
Regular brake system maintenance is recommended to ensure your vehicle’s brake system responds properly every time you step on the brake pedal. We offer preventative maintenance to our customers to make certain they never have to face expensive brake repairs. When you bring your car, truck, or SUV into our shop for a brake inspection and maintenance visit, we’ll check the
- Brake pads to make certain they aren’t worn down too much
- Brake fluid to ensure it isn’t leaking or dirty
- Brake hoses and master cylinder for brake fluid leaks
- Brake calipers, discs, drums, and rotors for warps and wear
- Wheel cylinders to make sure they’re okay
- Parking brake and brake pedal for engagement
If anything needs to be replaced, such as the brake pads which, on average, last anywhere from 25,000 to 65,000 miles depending on their quality and your braking habits, we’ll replace it. This avoids one part from harming another part and this domino effect can get pretty expensive if you ignore it. A brake pad replacement can turn into a $500-plus service visit if the pads have damaged the rotors.
