Brakes

 

Brakes are among the most changed parts of a car. Sometimes, you might hear a squeak while backing out of your garage and other times it might be a long squeal while coming to a stop. Besides these annoyances, brakes can pose a safety threat if not taken care of immediately. For instance, worn out brakes can take longer time to come to bring a car to a complete stop. If either of these occurrences is happening to you, don’t delay and let Fort Worth’s best auto repair shop keep you safe on the road.

There are several components in a brake system. Other shops will usually replace just the pads and rotors and send you on your way without checking the other parts. Oakland Auto Repair’s ASE certified technicians check everything including:

  • Master cylinder
  • Brake reservoir
  • Brake lines
  • Brake caliper
  • Brake piston
  • Brake pads
  • Brake rotors
  • Parking brake
  • Power booster
  • Brake hoses
  • Brake drums
  • Brake shoes
  • Brake fluid
  • Anti-lock brake system
