 Visit MD Auto Care for regular inspections. Our brake service offers pad, fluid, rotor/drum repairs & more.

Through our 65-point vehicle report as part of a major or minor car service with MD Auto Care, we strive to make sure your vehicle's brake system remains in optimal condition. Our team of qualified technicians will identify any warning signs and recommend repair or servicing if necessary to avoid bigger issues in the future. We care about your safety.

The braking system in a car is made up of various components that work together to ensure safe and effective stopping power. Over time, wear and tear can cause these components to fail or require repairs. Below are some of the components that may need attention:

Brake pads: These are the parts of the braking system that press against the rotor to stop the car. Over time, they wear down and will need to be replaced.

Rotors: Rotors are the round, disc-shaped components that the brake pads press against to slow down the vehicle. Like brake pads, they can become worn, warped or damaged and will need to be resurfaced or replaced.

Calipers: Calipers hold the brake pads in place and clamp them onto the rotor when you press on the brake pedal. If the calipers become stuck or fail, the pads won't make proper contact with the rotor and the braking system won't work as it should.

Brake lines: The brake lines carry brake fluid from the master cylinder to the calipers. If the lines become damaged or corroded, the fluid can leak out, reducing the system's effectiveness.

Master cylinder: The master cylinder converts the force applied to the brake pedal into hydraulic pressure that activates the calipers. If it becomes damaged or worn, it may not work properly, affecting your ability to stop the car.

Brake fluid: Brake fluid is necessary to transfer pressure from the master cylinder to the calipers. If the fluid becomes contaminated or low, it can impact braking performance and increase the risk of accidents.

Keeping these components in good working condition is essential to ensure the safety of yourself and other drivers on the road. Regular inspections and maintenance can help you identify issues early and keep your brakes functioning properly.

We assess the following and replace where necessary:

Brake Disc/Rotor And Drum Machining or Resurfacing 

Don't forget to also have your suspension, steering. wheel alignment and balance inspected as they all impact on your braking system.

Protect your braking system from corrosion and dangerous water contamination. Speak to MD Auto Care!

Taking a risk with your brakes is not a good idea, but MD Auto Care in Golden Square can lend a helping hand and alleviate your worries. To increase the efficiency of your braking, it is important to flush your brake fluid on a regular basis.

Failure to replace your brake fluid on a regular basis will cause it to deteriorate, compromising its efficacy. Did you know that pockets of air can be formed due to the deterioration, resulting in slowed braking capabilities? Ultimately, this could be the difference between avoiding a hazardous collision or risking lives and property in an avoidable accident.

Clean brake fluid not only protects your safety it also prolongs the life of your braking system components by preventing corrosion. Contaminated fluid can hinder the brake components' smooth operation, leading to brake grabbing, uneven braking, or complete brake failure.
