Brake Service

Your brakes are what stand between you and the vehicle in front of you. When you press the brake pedal, hydraulic fluid transfers that force to the brake calipers, which squeeze the brake pads against the rotors to slow your wheels. Every component in this system needs to work properly to keep you safe.

Brake pads are designed to wear down over time. Most pads have wear indicators that produce a squealing sound when the pads are getting thin. If you ignore this warning and the pads wear through completely, you will hear a grinding metal on metal sound. At that point, you are damaging the rotors and the repair will cost significantly more.

At JST Automotive Center, we inspect your entire brake system, not just the pads. We check rotor thickness and condition, caliper operation, brake lines and hoses for leaks or damage, and brake fluid condition. We will give you an honest assessment of what needs attention now and what can wait.

We service all types of brake systems including disc brakes, drum brakes, and anti-lock braking systems (ABS). Whether you need a simple pad replacement or a complete brake overhaul, our experienced technicians have the skills and equipment to do the job right.
