To Brake or not to brake,
Looking for brake repair near me?
Your braking system is one of the most important safety systems on your car or truck. We all need to come to a safe stop when we get to a destination, but there are all those annoying halts in between that makes it the one system that keeps you safe during your entire trip.
Your Brakes - They protect you and your family
Don't wait until you need to stop to find out what those noisy brakes were about!
For most of us the only time we think of our brakes is when we have to hit them quickly to avoid a wreck, or when we push them and... they don't want to work. There is more to it than just the pedal and pads though.
Here is a sample of a simple brake system.
Not so simple is it?
When I ask my nieces about brakes they say I push the pedal and the car stops, and there is some brake pads in there somewhere because Uncle Mark just changed them. That is all they really care about because that is all they see. If you want to learn a little more, just watch this short video!
Disk or Drums?
The most common brake systems use either a disk brake or drum brake to stop your wheels from turning.
These are what are commonly found on most cars and trucks.
Pads and rotors are found on disk brakes, while drum and shoes on a drum brake. When most people talk about a brake job, they typically mean a pad replacement. This can also include shoes, drums, rotors, calipers, lines/hoses, master cylinder, plus fluid.
