Warning Signs Your Brakes Need Attention
Squealing or grinding when you brake, a soft or spongy pedal, pulling to one side, or vibration through the steering wheel are all signs your brakes need to be inspected. Ignoring these symptoms can turn a minor repair into a major one — and a safety risk.
Suspension issues often show up as excessive bouncing, uneven tire wear, or a vehicle that pulls during cornering. We inspect both systems together so nothing gets missed.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know when my brake pads need replacing?
Most pads wear down to a point where a metal indicator causes squealing. You may also notice longer stopping distances or a spongy pedal.
How long do brake pads last?
Typically 40,000 to 70,000 km depending on driving style and conditions. City driving wears pads faster than highway driving.
Do you do wheel alignments?
Yes. We recommend an alignment check after any suspension work or if you notice uneven tire wear or pulling.
Can you inspect my suspension without booking a full service?
Yes — we can perform a suspension inspection and let you know exactly what, if anything, needs attention.
