When do you need brake service? If the following happens:
- You hear a grinding or screeching noise. When this happens, urgent care is needed. This means that your pads are worn completely and there is metal to metal contact
- Your brakes do not feel the same as usual when applied or if the pedal "sinks" toward the floor. Your brake fluid may be low
- You see a clear type fluid similar to motor oil underneath your vehicle anywhere from the front to the back. Your brake hoses may be leaking

- You feel a vibration when applying the brakes
When you bring us your vehicle for braking system service, we will:
- Replace brake pads and rotors, if needed
- Clean and lubricate sliders
