Brake Repair near Me

Whether you've been driving for a while, or your new to the roadways around Brockton, Randolph, and Stoughton, Massachusetts, you likely know the importance of automotive service. One key area within your vehicle that will need service at some point or another, is your braking system.

Your braking system plays a critical role in your safety behind the wheel. Accordingly, when it needs repair, it is important to provide it with attention.

Fortunately, here at Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram 24, we're well equipped to help. Learn more about our expertise, so instead of searching the web for "brake repair near me," you'll already know where to turn.

Your Braking System

While your vehicle's brakes may seem simple, allowing you to slow down and stop, the way in which they work is much more complex.

When you press the brake pedal, it signals to your vehicle that you are ready to stop. This feedback sends pressure through your brake lines, communicating with your brake calipers. The calipers then use this pressure to compress your brake pads against your brake rotors, causing friction within the wheels, allowing you to slow.

Not to mention - all of the adjacent parts that play an important role in the overall integrity of your braking system.

Do I Need Brake Repair?

Like every other car component, the parts within your braking system will eventually wear down, at which point you will need repair. Typically, your brake pads and rotors are the two parts that will call for more regular attention. Usually, your pads will need replacement every 40,000-50,000 miles while your rotors go closer to 50,000-60,000 miles.

No matter what part has misfired within your braking system, it is also important to look out for different signs and symptoms that indicate repair is needed. For instance, if you begin to experience a burning smell while driving, it can often indicate that an issue within your braking system has transpired.

Additionally, you'll want to look out for…

  • A brake pedal that feels soft or spongey
  • Unusual noises - grinding, squeaking, squealing
  • Wobbling or vibration when braking
  • Pulling to one side when braking

Obtaining Brake Repair

If you begin to experience any of these symptoms, or even just your brake light comes on, you will want to schedule service ASAP. Doing so will prevent more extensive damage from occurring.

Once your vehicle has entered our shop, we'll get down to work, taking a look at the braking system. From there, we'll be able to pinpoint what component(s) need attention and repair them accordingly. Our service team features trained and highly experienced technicians, ready to provide these repairs with great care and efficiency.

Getting the Most Out of Your Brakes

Once your brakes are repaired, you will want to drive as long as possible before needing repair again. In order to do so, you may want to work on following some braking best practices so that brake life can be extended.

For example, allowing yourself plenty of space to brake, not having to jam on your brakes at the last minute, helps keep your braking system working properly for longer. Some other best practices include…

  • Avoiding unnecessary brake taps
  • Lightening the load within your vehicle when applicable
  • Having your braking system inspected regularly
