Brakes

When your vehicle refuses to stop, nothing else matters. That is why Gear Grinders Garage is your brake service expert in the Trussville area. We want to keep you safe, and we provide a full range of brake system services, from simple maintenance to complex brake repair.

Is It Time for New Brake Lining?

Automotive braking lining is designed to emit an audible alarm when it reaches the end of its useful life, and this is one warning you should never ignore. If you continue to drive with worn brake lining, you could do serious damage to the underlying discs and drums. So when you hear that audible alarm, it is time to give us a call.

When you bring your vehicle to us, we will check the amount of brake lining, and we can replace the worn lining if needed. We can also examine the rest of your brake components, so you can stay safer behind the wheel. We are dedicated to the safety, and the convenience, of Trussville area drivers, and we want to be your brake repair headquarters.

Are Your Brakes Making Noise?

Even if your brake lining is fine, you might still hear unusual noises coming from your brakes. Maybe your brakes squeal and squeak when the weather is wet. Maybe they grind when you step on the brakes.

Whatever the noise, you need to know that these things are not normal. If your brakes are making any unusual sounds at all, it is time to give Gear Grinders Garage a call. We know brakes, and we service the entire Trussville area.

Are You topping Off the Brake Fluid Reservoir?

You should be checking the fluids in your car at regular intervals – like every time you get gas. From time to time, you may need to top off a bit of oil or add some windshield washer fluid to the reservoir, but if you are regularly adding brake fluid, you need to find the leak fast – before it puts you and your fellow Trussville area drivers at risk.

There are a number of things that can cause brake fluid to leak, but it can be hard to find the issue on your own. So bring your car, truck or SUV to Gear Grinders Garage right away – when it comes to brake problems, you cannot afford to wait.

The brake system components are arguably the most critical components on your vehicle.
