• Anti-lock brake system : ABS ensures passenger and driver safety by not letting the wheels stop during braking. This prevents skidding and gives greater control to the driver. Our experts fix any issue that may arise in your car's ABS
• Brake fluid flushes : brake fluid tends to absorb moisture from the air and makes the braking system less effective. This also makes the fluid corrosive thereby damaging the system. Our experts provide brake fluid flushes to avoid this problem
• Brake hoses : a brake hose transports pressurized brake fluid from the master cylinder to the brakes. A damaged hose can hamper braking. We can replace these, if we notice any cracks or signs of wear
• Brake pad and shoe replacement : a squealing brake is a classic sign of brake pad troubles. A grinding metal-on-metal sound is a sign of complete deterioration of the brake pad. Meet our experts to fix this problem
• Caliper replacement : the brake caliper encompasses your brake pads and fits around the rotor pressing the pads against the rotor when you brake. A problem with this system will cause the car to brake unevenly, making the car slide forward. This can be very dangerous especially during bad weather conditions
• Resurface rotors : in a disc brake system, rotors are attached to the vehicle's wheels. The brake pads hold on to the rotor thereby bringing the rotor and wheel to a halt. Overtime, friction causes grooves and cracks to appear. Resurfacing worn out rotors will add new life into them
