    Common Brake Repair Issues We Fix

    Worn Brake Pads

    Squealing, grinding, or reduced stopping power indicate worn brake pads. We inspect pad thickness and replace them before they damage your rotors, saving you money.

    Warped Rotors

    Vibration or pulsing when braking signals warped rotors. We measure rotor thickness and either resurface or replace them to restore smooth, effective braking.

    Brake Fluid Leaks

    Low brake fluid or a soft pedal may indicate leaks in brake lines, calipers, or master cylinder. We locate and repair leaks to restore proper hydraulic pressure.

    Sticking Calipers

    Vehicle pulling to one side when braking or uneven pad wear indicates caliper problems. We service or replace calipers to ensure even braking on all wheels.

    ABS Issues

    ABS warning light or improper ABS operation requires diagnostic testing. We repair ABS sensors, modules, and hydraulic units to restore this critical safety system.

    Brake Noise

    Squealing, grinding, or clicking noises indicate brake problems. We identify the source of noise and provide proper repairs to eliminate it and restore safe braking.

    FAQs About Brake Repair in Bullard

    How much does brake repair cost in Bullard?

    Brake repair costs vary depending on what's needed. Brake pad replacement typically costs $150-$300 per axle, while rotor replacement adds $200-$400. We provide detailed estimates before starting work so you know exactly what to expect.

    How often should I have my brakes inspected?

    We recommend brake inspection every 12,000 miles or annually. However, if you notice any warning signs like squealing, grinding, vibration, or reduced stopping power, have your brakes checked immediately.

    What are signs I need brake repair?

    Warning signs include squealing or grinding noises, vibration when braking, soft or spongy brake pedal, vehicle pulling to one side, brake warning light, or increased stopping distance. Don't ignore these signs - have your brakes inspected right away.

    How long do brake pads last?

    Brake pad life varies based on driving habits and conditions, typically lasting 30,000-70,000 miles. City driving, frequent stopping, and aggressive braking reduce pad life. Regular inspections help catch wear before it becomes dangerous.

    Can I drive with worn brake pads?

    No! Driving with severely worn brake pads is dangerous and can damage rotors, increasing repair costs. If you hear grinding noises or experience reduced braking, have your vehicle towed to prevent further damage and ensure safety.
