BRAKE REPAIR & SERVICE

It’s easy to forget how important some things are until they stops working properly, and that’s definitely true of your car’s brakes. So remember to have your brakes checked at least once a year, and more often if you frequently drive in stop-and-go traffic or in hilly areas.

There are several braking issues that can indicate your vehicle needs brake repair work.

Get a brake service inspection if :
- The brake pedal seems to be spongy or presses farther to the floor than usual
- Your vehicle pulls to the right or left when you brake
- Unusual noises or vibrations occur during braking

Many brake pads today have a built-in metal component that creates a slight squeal. The squeal increases in volume over time to alert you of the need for service. If you begin to hear a loud squeal, make sure to bring your vehicle to Future Tire for a full, 23-point inspection.

Replacing Your Brake Pads

Brake pad replacement is the most common repair job for automotive brake systems. The reason is simple: brakes are designed to wear out. The pads rub on the brake disk to stop your car, so worn pads are the first part to check if you are experiencing any braking problems.

Assuming that you have the proper tools, the two most difficult aspects of brake pad replacement are the heavy weight of the caliper and the pistons. Without proper tools, adjusting the piston and calipers to fit over the new, thicker pads can be very difficult.

Since brake pads are only one possible problem with a brake system, there are other items to check as well. If the pads are worn thin or are cracked from heat during use, may necessary the system should be inspected.
