Brake Repair near Jacksonville, FL

When Should I Schedule Brake Repair?

This all depends on the condition of your brakes. If you are experiencing issues or tell-tale signs like burning smells, “spongy” brakes, or similar maladies, then brake repair is going to be a more immediate concern. But if you aren’t experiencing major issues like those, then a good way to consider your brake needs is to follow the maintenance schedule in your owner’s manual.

The schedule will keep your brakes in working condition until it’s the appropriate time to replace. However, we understand that not everyone has access to an owner’s manual. One way to consider it is by a mileage timeframe. An example is that a brake pad should be replaced at 50,000 miles, but due to differences in driving habits and conditions, this could be pushed up to 25,000 miles or as far back as 70,000 miles.

What Does Brake Repair Include?

Every brake repair job is going to look different as each condition is unique. That said, there are certain generalities you can expect to see across the board in brake repair service. You’ll see our technicians inspect the entirety of your brake system to determine its condition, and then a recommendation of any repairs and replacement parts that are necessary for your brakes to return to working conditions.

Calipers or wheel cylinders are often rebuilt or replaced depending on condition. While items such as hoses, lines, or master cylinder (if leaks are present or a malfunction is detected) can simply be replaced. Sometimes replacements like these are the most we’ll have to do, but again, due to your unique condition, more extensive repairs are called for, like rebuilding the brakes entirely for example. Our team will take care of you.
