Frequently asked questions

How do I know if my brakes need service?
Common signs include squeaking or grinding noises, vibrations when braking, a soft brake pedal, or longer stopping distances. If you notice any of these, it's best to have your brakes checked right away.
How often should brakes be replaced?
Brake pads typically last between 25,000 and 70,000 miles, depending on your driving habits and conditions. Regular inspections help catch wear early and avoid bigger issues.
How long does brake service take?
Most brake services can be completed within 1 to 2 hours, depending on the work needed. We always aim to get you back on the road as quickly as possible.
Is it safe to drive with worn brakes?
