At Husker Automotive, we follow a comprehensive approach when taking care of car brakes to ensure the safety and performance of the vehicle. Here’s how we typically handle brake maintenance and repairs. We offer the best brakes service in Las Vegas.
Visual Inspection: Our techs will visually inspect your brake components: pads, rotors, calipers and brake lines, for signs of wear or damage.
Test Drive: We will detect issues like squeaking, grinding noises, or reduced braking performance during a test drive.
Brake Fluid Check: We will check your brake fluid levels and its condition, ensuring it’s not contaminated or low.
Pad Thickness Measurement: We measure your brake pad thickness and recommend replacement if they are worn out.
High-Quality Pads: We only use high-quality brake pads that match your vehicle’s specifications for optimal performance.
Rotor Inspection: We check your brake rotors to ensure they’re not warped or overly worn. Therefore, we may recommend to resurface or replace rotors.
Brake Fluid Flush: Did you know brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, leading to reduced braking efficiency? We will perform a brake fluid flush if necessary to ensure the system remains effective.
Proper Bleeding: After fluid changes, our techs bleed you brake system to remove any air pockets that can cause brake failure.
Rotor Resurfacing or Replacement: Depending on the condition of your rotors, they may be resurfaced to provide a smooth surface for braking or replaced if they are too thin or damaged.
Caliper Check: Calipers, which press the pads against the rotors, are checked for leaks, proper movement, and any other damage.
Leak Checks: We inspect your brake lines and hoses for cracks, leaks, or corrosion.
Hose Replacement: If your hoses are deteriorating, we will recommend replacing them to prevent brake fluid leaks and ensure proper pressure.
Adjustment or Replacement: If needed, we will adjust or replace your parking brake mechanism to ensure it holds the vehicle securely when engaged.
Performance Test: After repairs, we recheck the brakes by performing a road test to ensure smooth and effective stopping power.
Follow-up Inspection: We might suggest a follow-up inspection to make sure everything is functioning well after a period of driving.
