Brake Service at Simmons-Rockwell Service Center

When you think about vehicle service, you likely think about things like oil changes and tires, but your brakes require a great deal of attention as well. Tasked with keeping you safe on the road, your brakes take a major beating due to heat and friction, and should be checked regularly to ensure your vehicle is safe to drive.

How Often To Have Brakes Serviced

While the standard recommendation is to have your brakes inspected at every other oil change, the fact is that when your brakes need attention is as much about how you drive as much as how far you've driven. If you frequently find yourself in stop and go traffic, descending long hills where speed control is necessary, or you just drive more aggressively than normal, it might be a good idea to have your brakes inspected more often to stay ahead of potential trouble.

Signs of Brake Problems

Your brakes will give you some warning signs when it is time to bring them to our attention. A squealing sound when braking is a built-in indication that your brake pads are nearing the end of their useful life. Drive beyond that threshold for too long and you'll hear a grinding that indicates your brake pads no longer have any wear material left, and you are now damaging the rotors. Other issues include vibrations when braking, pulling to the left or right while braking, or a softer than normal brake pedal feel.

Why Brake Service Is Important

Your brakes are the only thing that can slow your vehicle to a stop, so making sure they are in good working condition is the key to a safe drive. Your brakes will wear out over time, so be sure to have them inspected at our Simmons-Rockwell Service Center, and replaced when necessary.
