Did Your Brakes Break? CAR FIX Can Help – Full Stop!

Brake Service

We don’t have to spend too much time underscoring the importance of brakes. They’re brakes. If you’ve ever thought about what would happen if you couldn’t stop your vehicle, then you understand their importance already!

When you stop by CAR FIX, you’ll be able to stop anywhere else you like. Our experienced ASE certified technicians are standing by to service the brake system in any car, truck, van or SUV regardless of its country of origin, so you can keep yourself, your family, and everyone else around you safe while you’re traversing Tennessee’s roadways.

It is advisable to replace brake pads every 40,000 to 50,000 miles. You may want to replace yours more frequently, however, depending on your driving habits and the type of brake pads you currently have installed. If you’re unsure about your brake pads’ condition, then the solution is simple: bring it into CAR FIX for a thorough inspection!

Don’t Forget About Brake Fluid

An effective brake system requires more than pads and rotors. It needs brake fluid, too! The brake pedal is literally connected to nothing without it.

If you’ve noticed soft, bouncy, or spongy action from your brake pedal, then a fluid exchange can immediately restore normal performance. If your brakes emit an ugly odor when engaged – or are otherwise underperforming – then a brake fluid flush can make everything right again, too.

Brake fluid flushes are generally recommended every 30,000 miles or two years. If you aren’t sure whether you’re due for a brake flush, bring it on in to CAR FIX for your next oil change. Our skilled techs can detect any brake issue, and address it with the speed and precision CAR FIX has built its name on.
