New Brake Pads, Rotors, Fluid, and more
Most people have the idea that brake services are a simple matter of replacing their brake pads when the time comes for such a routine maintenance procedure, and they’re right to think that. However, replacing brake pads also requires draining and replacing the brake fluid, commonly called a brake fluid exchange, which is a good thing because it allows the technician conducting the repair to further inspect for contaminants indicative of a deeper problem.
Maintaining Your Brakes
The most common reason for brake maintenance is that the brake pads have worn down and need to be replaced. At such a point in time, other components in the braking system are likely fine, but it’s a great time to inspect them for any issues which might become problematic while there is access to view and test how the brakes are working. It can’t be emphasized enough how once a problem starts, it’s only going to get worse and become more expensive to repair. It’s always better to catch a problem sooner than later. Even for someone who might be wealthy enough that repair prices aren’t a concern, a malfunctioning car is a safety issue for you, your family, and everybody else’s family who happens to drive the same roads.
Brake Services We Offer
- Brake Pad Replacement – service includes the removal of your worn out brake pads and replacing them with new genuine Mitsubishi brake pads from our parts center. The entire brake system also gets inspected with an emphasis on rotors’ condition with resurfacing as needed to restore factory specifications.
- Brake Rotor Resurfacing or Replacement – after inspection our Expert Mitsubishi Technician will know whether your rotors need to be resurfaced or replaced. Minor physical defects, such as cracks or small grooving can get corrected with resurfacing. However, if the grooves are too deep, the cracks are severe, or the rotor is warped, replacement is necessary.
- Brake Fluid Exchange – overtime, your brake fluid breaks down and collects particles. We will drain or flush this old brake fluid from your closed hydraulic brake system. Then, inspect the system for leaks and damages. Then, replenish the brake system with the necessary brake fluid for operation.
- Brake System Inspection – the entire brake system will be inspected. This includes your calipers, master cylinder, pads, rotors, fluid, and hoses.
What Might Happen if Your Brakes Aren’t Properly Serviced
As ridiculous as it sounds, imagine a zombie apocalypse in which you don’t care about brake maintenance or performance as long as the car gets you from point A to point B. Long past the screeching noise of the wire intended to let you know the brake pads need replacement, the pads are going to eventually dissolve and be gone. Then it’s metal on metal, which won’t efficiently stop the car, but that in and of itself doesn’t matter when safety in traffic isn’t a concern. Then the metal will break and the car will simply have no means of stopping other than being angled uphill, after which there is no way of stopping it from rolling back down the hill backward until the momentum stops. Incorporate the more realistic aspects of other traffic and school buses on the road and the idea of failed brakes becomes far scarier.
