Brake inspection checklist

• Check pad and shoe thickness and wear pattern.
• Inspect rotors or drums for scoring and thickness.
• Test caliper function and hardware condition.
• Examine brake hoses and lines for cracks or leaks.
• Assess brake fluid condition and fluid level.
• Scan ABS system for stored trouble codes if the light is on.

Brake pad and rotor considerations

Replacing brake pads at the right time prevents damage to rotors and maintains predictable stopping distances. When rotors are uneven or below minimum thickness, we will recommend replacement. Resurfacing is an option only when rotors meet safety specs.

Calipers and brake hardware

Calipers must slide and apply pressure evenly. Stuck calipers cause uneven wear and can reduce braking efficiency. We inspect and service caliper slides, pistons, and mounting hardware during a brake job to restore proper function.

ABS and electronic components

Modern vehicles use ABS and other electronic aids. If the ABS warning light appears, we will perform a diagnostic check and explain the findings. Sometimes the issue is a sensor or wiring problem that can be serviced without replacing major components.

Brake fluid maintenance

Changing brake fluid helps maintain system performance and reduces corrosion. We evaluate fluid condition and suggest a service interval based on the vehicle manufacturer recommendations and inspection results.
