Need To Stop On A Whim?

Your brakes are one of the most important components of your car.

They are responsible for bringing your car to a complete stop and ensuring your safety while driving. However, just like any other component of your car, your brakes need regular service and repair to keep them functioning at their best.

There are several symptoms that could indicate that your brakes are in need of repair or service. If you notice that your brakes are making strange noises such as squealing, grinding or screeching, this could be a sign that your brake pads are worn out. If your car pulls to one side when braking or you experience a pulsating sensation when braking, this could be an indication that your brake rotors are warped or damaged.

Regular brake checks are essential to ensure that your brakes are functioning correctly. This includes regular inspections, replacements of worn-out parts, and topping up brake fluid when necessary. At Hicks Automotive & Exhaust Centre, our expert technicians will perform a thorough brake inspection and let you know what needs to be repaired or serviced.

Ignoring symptoms of bad brakes can lead to a dangerous situation while driving. It can cause you to lose control of your car or result in an accident. That’s why it is important to bring your car to a trusted service center like Hicks Automotive & Exhaust Centre for regular brake inspections and service.
