Brake Repair
Highly Experienced Auto Brake Repair Shop in Green Bay, WI
Do you see signs of unresponsiveness in your vehicle brakes? If yes, then you should bring it in for a quick check. Your car brakes are the first safety feature that comes in handy when driving on or off the road. They’re necessary for your safety and the other people driving around you. When your vehicle brakes begin to produce a squeaking sound, become soft to the touch, or are even inappropriately reactive, it is not only a mere inconvenience– it is a potentially life-threatening situation. Maintaining your braking system is not just to improve the car’s efficiency; it is about safety.
Our company, Huron Automotive, has provided Green Bay drivers with the best brake repair services for over a decade. Whether you need a quick check or require a replacement of the whole braking system, we will do it for your car. Our ASE-certified technicians use their skills and the latest tools to ensure you can drive with confidence—rain or shine.
Our Brake Repair Services
The air conditioning system in your car is made up of a number of interrelated parts that need to function in unison. Here at Huron Automotive, we have the skills and equipment to diagnose and repair any problem that your AC system may present to enable it work at its best. Here are some ways we can help;
Brake Inspections
It is important to check the brakes often to detect wear before it reaches a point of total damage. Our technicians carefully assess all brake pads, rotors, calipers, and brake lines to determine whether they operate optimally.
Brake Fluid Exchange
Brake fluid is needed to transmit pressure from the brake pedal to the braking system. When your brake fluid is either contaminated or low, it can reduce your car’s ability to brake effectively. We expel the previous brake fluid and then put in the brand and type of brake fluid recommended by the manufacturer.
Brake Pad Replacement
Brake pads are expected to wear out, but if not replaced on time, they can damage the rotors and other parts. When you hear squealing or grinding sounds, it is the right time to replace them. Our brake pads are of high quality to restore your system to its optimal level.
Rotor Resurfacing or Replacement
The rotors are important in generating the friction needed to bring your vehicle to a halt. When a rotor is twisted or has undergone more than normal wear, it is likely to vibrate. If the rotors are rough, we sand them to make them smooth, while if they are bad, we replace them with a properly fitted one.
Brake Line Repairs
Leakage or damage to the brake lines can cause braking power loss. Our technicians examine and replace worn or ruptured brake lines to ensure the vehicle is safe to use again.
ABS System Repairs
Modern cars are fitted with a special system known as Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABS) to reduce wheel locking during braking. If you notice your ABS warning light is on or get a strange feeling in the brake pedal, we can identify and correct the issue to ensure your car is safe to operate in emergency braking conditions.
FAQs About Brake Repair
What is the proper time interval for replacing my brake pads?
Brake pads experience different stresses depending on the driver’s behavior or environmental situations and usually last between 25,000 and 70,000 miles. It is recommended that you perform the inspections as frequently as possible so you know when they should be replaced.
Should I drive my car with a soft brake pedal?
No, you should not drive with a soft pedal. A soft brake may mean that there is a hydraulic leakage or there is air in the brake system. It is advisable to have it inspected as soon as possible.
Why does my car bend to one side when I brake?
This problem may be caused by unevenly worn brake pads, a seized caliper, or problems with the brake hoses. A professional inspection can reveal the real reason.
What is the consequence of not changing your brake pads on time?
If you wait too long before changing brake pads, the rotors will wear out and become damaged, which is costly to replace or fix. This can also limit the braking capacity and increase the rate of accidents.
Can brake fluid go bad?
Yes, brake fluid can absorb moisture, which over time leads to corrosion of the brake system. Many manufacturers advise that it should be replaced every 2-3 years.
Why does my car screech when braking if the pads are new?
New pads may squeal if they are not properly bedded in, debris on the rotors, or if lower-quality pads were installed.
