Signs it’s Time to Service Your Brakes
If you put off servicing your brakes long enough, you’ll begin to notice signs of wear & tear. Recognizing these signs early on is key to avoiding any long-term issues or compromising the performance of your vehicle’s brakes. Some key signs to look for include:
- Brake Light Stays On
- Squealing or Grinding Noises When Braking
- Wobbling or Scraping When Braking
- Visibly Leaking Fluid
- Spongy Brake Pedal
- Vehicle Pulls to One Side While Braking

This allows us to mark any potential trouble spots, so we can make a maintenance plan with you that ensures your brakes never get too worn down to perform at the level you depend on.
