How often should I have my brakes inspected?  

We recommend brake inspections every 12,000 miles or annually. However, heavy traffic driving may require more frequent checks to ensure optimal safety and performance.

Grinding noises typically indicate brake pads have worn completely through the metal backing, which can damage rotors and require immediate brake repair attention.  

Why does my brake pedal feel soft or spongy?  

A soft brake pedal often signals air in brake lines, brake fluid leaks, or worn brake components that compromise hydraulic pressure in your brake system.  

How long do brake pads typically last?  

Brake pad lifespan varies from 25,000 to 70,000 miles, depending on driving habits, vehicle type, and local conditions, such as Moreno Valley’s varied terrain.
