BRAKE SERVICE
At Discount Tire & Service Centers, we know how important properly working brakes are for keeping you and your vehicle safe. Our team of skilled technicians offers brake services to keep your brakes in top shape, from regular inspections to necessary repairs.
Are Break Services Necessary?
Absolutely. Brake services are critical for keeping your car safe on the road. Over time, your brake parts wear out, which can lead to longer stopping distances or, worse, complete brake failure.
Regular brake maintenance ensures your brakes are working properly and helps avoid bigger, more expensive problems down the road.
How Long Do Brake Services Take?
It all depends on what your car needs. A simple brake inspection usually takes about 30 minutes. If your brakes need repairs—like new pads or rotors—it can take a bit longer, usually between an hour and a few hours, so you may have to hang out at the brake shop or get a ride back.
We’ll give you a clear estimate and keep you informed every step of the way.
Brake Inspections
Our brake inspections are thorough, checking everything from the pads to the rotors to the brake fluid. We’ll make sure everything is in good shape and give you a heads-up if any repairs are needed.
Brake Repair
If your brakes need some work, we’ll recommend the right fix. Whether it’s swapping out worn pads, resurfacing rotors, or fixing the brake fluid, we’ll make sure your vehicle gets the attention it needs.
Our goal is simple: ensure your brakes are reliable and ready when needed.
How Much Should a Typical Brake Job Cost?
Costs depend on what kind of service you need. If it’s just new brake pads, it’ll be on the lower end, but more involved jobs—like replacing rotors or calipers—can cost a bit more. At Discount Tire & Service Centers, we offer straightforward pricing and several brake service packages to fit your budget.
And if you buy your tires with us, you get a free brake inspection. It’s just one way we like to say thanks for choosing us!
How Often Do Brakes Need To Be Serviced?
It’s smart to have your brakes checked every 12,000 miles or about once a year. But if you notice your brakes squealing, grinding, or feeling less responsive, it’s a good idea to bring your car in sooner. Regular service helps extend the life of your brakes and keeps you safe on the road.
