Free Brake Inspections for Your Safety
Do your brakes give you any concerns? At Sal’s Auto Service, we offer free brake inspections to provide you with peace of mind, without obligation. We thoroughly inspect your brake pads, rotors, brake fluid, and the condition of your brakes during the inspection. It allows you to tackle problems quickly, so they do not turn into dangerous or expensive ones.
During the inspection, our certified technicians carefully examine your entire braking system. This includes measuring brake pad thickness, checking rotor surfaces for warping or scoring, evaluating the condition and level of your brake fluid, and inspecting calipers, hoses, and hardware for wear or leaks. We also road-test your vehicle, if needed, to assess how it performs under real driving conditions.
Like most components in your vehicle, brakes slowly deteriorate after they are used. Regularly arranging routine brake examinations will help you avoid severe difficulties. There are some indications that you should seek a car brake service.
- You hear squeaking, grinding, or squealing when braking
- The steering wheel or brake pedal vibrates
- Your vehicle pulls to one side when stopping
- The brake warning light is on
- It’s been over 12 months or 12,000 miles since your last inspection
Even if there are no obvious signs, it’s a good idea to get a brake check once a year. Prevention beats emergency repair – every time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do brake pads usually last?
On average, brake pads will last between 30,000 and 70,000 miles, with variations depending on your driving style and vehicle type. However, like tires, they tend to wear out more quickly in city driving.
What’s included in a brake service?
A comprehensive brake service on the car will involve replacing the brake pads, resurfacing or replacing the rotors, and replacing the brake fluid, along with a thorough inspection of the car’s braking system.
Is squeaking constantly a sign of worn brakes?
Not always. Dust or bad weather can also cause squeaking, but constant noise typically indicates wear or a lack of lubrication.
Do I need to replace rotors every time I change pads?
Not necessarily. We may just need to resurface the rotors, assuming that they are in good shape. Though most of the time, brake rotor repair or full replacement is required for deep grooves or warping.
