How Christian Brothers Automotive Can Help

Identifying Brake Issues

Don't ignore the warning signs! Your brakes may exhibit various symptoms that indicate potential problems. Stay vigilant for the following indicators:

  • Squealing or squeaking sounds
  • Grinding noise when coming to a stop
  • Shaking or vibrations in the steering wheel
  • Spongy brake pedal
  • Vehicle pulling to one side when braking
  • Wobbling or vibrations at highway speeds

Common brake issues often stem from worn brake pads or rotors. These crucial components require regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance. If necessary, our experienced technicians can promptly replace worn brake pads and damaged rotors, restoring your vehicle's braking efficiency.

Addressing Low Brake Fluid: Preserving Performance and Protection

Insufficient brake fluid can adversely affect the performance of your braking system. This vital fluid amplifies the force you apply to the pedal, enabling effective braking. It also plays a crucial role in protecting the internal metal components of your brakes from corrosion. Our team can inspect your brake fluid level and condition, recommending replacement as necessary to maintain peak performance and protect your braking system.

Our Approach to Brake Service

At Christian Brothers Automotive Longmont, we prioritize transparency and your satisfaction. When you choose us for brake service, expect a thorough inspection and open communication throughout the process. Our comprehensive brake inspection covers the following key areas:

  • Assessment of brake pad thickness
  • Examination of calipers
  • Check of brake/hydraulic fluid level and condition
  • Regular inspection of brake hoses for wear and tear
  • Evaluation of brake hardware
  • Assessment of rotor wear

We believe in empowering our customers with information. Before proceeding with any repairs, we provide a detailed breakdown of the necessary fixes, including a transparent cost analysis of parts and labor. Your consent is essential, and we will never proceed with any work without your approval.

Driving Habits and Maintenance: Extending Brake Life

To maximize the lifespan of your brakes, including pads and rotors, adopt responsible driving habits and adhere to regular maintenance schedules. Consider the following tips:

  • Address brake issues promptly when you notice any symptoms
  • Follow your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations for brake fluid replacement
  • Minimize exposure to stop-and-go traffic and reduce excessive vehicle loading to minimize wear and tear on your brakes
