How To Tell If Your Brakes Need to be Serviced
Healthy brakes translate to a successful commute for you and your cherished passengers. By ensuring your brake pads, brake fluid and brake system components are all running seamlessly, you'll be able to rid of any lingering thoughts that your brakes might not deliver as expected.
Loud Squealing or Metallic Scratching Noises
A scratching or squealing noise emitting from your tires generally indicates your brakes are nearing the end of their lifespan or are already completely depleted.
Decreased Stopping Power
Brakes that feel like they have less "bite"Â likely may require replacement.
Long Pedal Travel Distance
If you require a longer than normal pedal depression to stop your vehicle, you may need new brake pads.
Has the Time Come for Brake Inspection?
As a rule of thumb, it's worth getting your brakes inspected every 12,000 miles or once a year. Our capable technicians will thoughtfully go through your system's individual components, ensuring that every facet is working as it should. From pads to rotors and master cylinders, you'll be fully in the know on the quality of your brake system.

What About Brake Fluid Exchanges?
Sometimes, all your vehicle may require is a fresh batch of brake fluid. In this case, a mastered technician will remove the old fluid from your vehicle; potentially cleaning out any passageways in the process, and replace it with new fluid that's up to or beyond your vehicle manufacturer's standards. For a wholly comprehensive automotive maintenance experience, our Service Center can provide.
Honda Brake & Service FAQ
Several warning signs indicate rotor problems, including vibrations in the steering wheel when braking, squealing or grinding noises, and visible grooves or scoring on the rotor surface. If you experience any of these issues, it's time for a professional inspection.
Not necessarily. Our technicians will measure the thickness of your rotors and check for warping or damage. Rotors can be resurfaced rather than replaced. However, if rotors are below the minimum thickness specifications or severely damaged, replacement is required to ensure optimal braking performance.
Honda recommends changing brake fluid every three years, regardless of mileage. This prevents moisture contamination that can lead to corrosion and brake failure. Regular brake fluid exchanges are especially important for drivers who frequently encounter stop-and-go traffic.
A complete brake service typically takes one to two hours per axle, depending on the specific repairs needed. Our service department maintains efficient workflows to minimize your wait time. We'll provide an accurate time estimate after our initial inspection.
We employ technicians who understand your Honda's specific brake system requirements. We use genuine Honda parts designed for your vehicle's exact specifications and we offer comprehensive warranties and specialized diagnostic equipment.
