How a brake repair goes

  1. 01

    Tell us what the car is doing

    We find the cause

    We check the pads, rotors, calipers, hoses and brake fluid, and find what is causing the noise or the feel in the pedal.

  3. 03

    You get an estimate first

    Before any work starts you get an estimate. Miami-Dade County requires it, and you decide whether we go ahead.

FAQ

Questions people ask us

How do I know I need new brakes?

Squealing or grinding, a longer stop than usual, a pedal that feels soft or pulses, or a warning light. Grinding usually means the pads are worn through, so don't wait on that one.

Do I always need new rotors with new pads?

No. Rotors are replaced when they are worn too thin or warped; otherwise new pads may be enough. We tell you what we find and why.

Is it safe to drive with the brake light on?

It can mean low brake fluid or a problem in the system. Have it checked right away, and don't drive if the pedal goes to the floor.
