Comprehensive Brake Service Options

Whether you are hearing a squeal, feeling a vibration, or simply due for routine maintenance, we can handle your brake service from inspection through repair. Our team works on domestic and foreign vehicles, from daily drivers to light-duty trucks and SUVs.

  • Brake Pad and Shoe Replacement. We replace worn friction material with high-quality parts designed to help restore smooth, quiet braking and consistent stopping power.
  • Rotor and Drum Service. Our technicians perform rotor resurfacing and replacement, as well as drum service, to address steering wheel vibration, pulsation, or grooves and to promote an even brake pedal feel.
  • Brake Fluid Exchange. We perform a full system flush of the hydraulic brake system to remove moisture and contaminants, which helps protect components like the master cylinder and maintain consistent hydraulic pressure.
  • Hydraulic System Repairs. From master cylinders and brake lines to hoses and wheel cylinders, we diagnose and address hydraulic concerns that may affect pedal feel or stopping distance.
  • ABS and Electronic Diagnostics. Using advanced scan tools, we perform ABS system diagnostics to track down the cause of warning lights and electronic braking issues.
  • Parking Brake Service. We adjust and service parking brake components to help ensure the vehicle holds properly on inclines and releases as it should.
  • Brake Hardware Replacement. We replace clips, pins, springs, and related hardware so pads and shoes move freely, wear more evenly, and operate as quietly as possible.

From basic brake pad replacement to more involved brake caliper service or hydraulic repairs, our goal is to give you clear options and let you decide what is right for your vehicle and budget.

What To Expect From Our Brake Service Process

We follow a simple, five-step process designed to keep you informed and in control from the first call to the final test drive.

Step 1: Schedule Your Visit

You can schedule by phone or online. When you book, we will ask about any symptoms you are noticing, such as squealing, grinding, vibration, or a dashboard light. This helps us prepare tools and parts so most work can be completed immediately once you approve it.

Step 2: Diagnostics and Inspections

When you arrive, our technicians road-test the vehicle as needed and inspect the braking components. We use manufacturer-equivalent diagnostic equipment to evaluate the hydraulic brake system, friction material, rotors and drums, and, when necessary, the ABS system.

Step 3: Digital Vehicle Inspection Report and Estimate

We document what we find using our Digital Vehicle Inspection (DVI). You receive a text with photos, short videos, and technician notes, along with a clear estimate for recommended repairs or maintenance.

Step 4: Review and Approval

A service advisor walks you through the DVI results in plain language, prioritizing what is urgent and what can wait. You can approve or decline each line item directly from your phone. No work begins until you give a clear yes.

Step 5: Brake Work Performed or Scheduled

Once you approve the plan, our ASE-certified technicians begin the brake service. Most brake repairs can be completed the same day, depending on parts availability and your schedule. If your brakes require additional work or specialty parts, we will coordinate a time that works for you and can provide Free Shuttle Service as needed.

For concerns such as a soft or spongy pedal, grinding or squealing noises, shaking or vibration when braking, or a brake or ABS dashboard warning light, we may recommend a comprehensive Precision Diagnostics evaluation. This deeper testing can include component removal or extended road tests and is priced based on the complexity of the concern.

Brake Warning Signs and Maintenance Basics

Your brakes are critical to your safety, so changes in how they sound, feel, or respond should never be ignored. Recognizing early warning signs can help you schedule service before damage spreads to more costly brake components.

  • High-pitched squealing. A consistent squeal when braking often means the brake pad wear indicator is contacting the rotor and may signal that the pads are nearing the end of their service life.
  • Grinding noises. Grinding can indicate that pad material is worn away and metal is contacting metal. This often leads to rotor damage and usually requires more extensive brake replacement.
  • Soft or spongy pedal. A pedal that sinks toward the floor or feels soft can point to air in the lines or a hydraulic fluid leak and should be checked immediately.
  • Vibration or pulsation. Shaking in the steering wheel or brake pedal when slowing down can be related to uneven or warped rotors that may need Rotor and Drum Service.
  • Pulling to one side. If your vehicle pulls left or right when braking, there may be an issue with brake caliper operation, hardware, or hydraulic pressure.

Brake pads can last anywhere from about 25,000 to 70,000 miles, depending on the vehicle, driving conditions, and braking style. Stop-and-go driving, heavy loads, and aggressive braking tend to shorten pad life.

Brake fluid is hygroscopic, which means it absorbs moisture over time. As water content increases, the fluid’s boiling point drops, which can contribute to brake fade under heavy use. Many manufacturers recommend a brake fluid flush around every 30,000 miles or roughly every two years, but you should always follow your owner’s manual for the specific interval on your vehicle.

Brake Service FAQs

Why Is My ABS Light On?

The ABS warning light can have several causes. Common reasons include a malfunctioning ABS module, low fluid level in the reservoir, a broken or contaminated wheel speed sensor, or the system being switched off if your vehicle has that feature. Our ABS and Electronic Diagnostics can help pinpoint the cause so you can decide on next steps.

How Long Will My Brake Pads Last?

There is no single mileage number that fits every vehicle. Many brake pads last between about 25,000 and 70,000 miles. Your driving habits, the type of roads you travel, and the weight of your vehicle all play a role in how quickly pads wear. During oil changes, our Courtesy Inspection includes a free visual check of pad thickness to help you plan ahead.

When Should I Change My Brake Fluid?

The best source is your vehicle owner’s manual, which lists the manufacturer’s recommendation. As a general guideline, many vehicles are due for a Brake Fluid Exchange around every 30,000 miles or every two years. We can check fluid condition during your visit and discuss timing with you.

Do You Offer a Warranty on Brake Work?

Yes. Most brake services at Christian Brothers Automotive Lewisville are covered by our 3-year/36,000-mile Nice Difference® Warranty. This coverage is honored at Christian Brothers Automotive locations nationwide, which gives you added confidence if you travel or relocate.

What Is a Digital Vehicle Inspection?

Our Digital Vehicle Inspection (DVI) is a complimentary, photo- and video-based report of your vehicle’s condition. While your car is in the bay, our technicians capture images and short clips of key components, including brakes, tires, and fluids. We send the report straight to your smartphone so you can see what we see and approve or decline recommendations from wherever you are.

Can You Work With My Extended Warranty?

We work with all major extended warranty providers. When you schedule your appointment, let us know which plan you have so we can help verify coverage and explain how it may apply to your brake service.
