🧠 Brake Knowledge 101: What Every Driver Should Know

Your brakes don’t just stop your car — they protect lives. At Driveworks, we believe every driver should know the signs of brake trouble, what causes it, and how to prevent costly repairs.

🔍 How Do Brakes Work?

When you press your brake pedal, a hydraulic system pushes brake fluid through lines to your calipers or wheel cylinders. These squeeze your brake pads or shoes against a spinning surface (rotor or drum), slowing the vehicle down.

Over time, those parts wear out — and that’s when you need brake service.

🚨 Signs Your Brakes Need Attention

If you notice any of these, it’s time to visit Driveworks:

  • 🛑 Squeaking or grinding sounds when braking
     
  • 🛑 Vibration or shaking in the steering wheel
     
  • 🛑 Brake warning light on the dash
     
  • 🛑 Soft or spongy brake pedal
     
  • 🛑 Car pulls to one side when stopping
     
  • 🛑 Takes longer than normal to stop
     

Even if your car seems fine, you should have your brakes inspected at least once a year or every 12,000 miles.


🧰 What’s Included in a Brake Inspection?


At Driveworks, we’ll check:


  • Brake pad thickness
     
  • Rotor/drum condition
     
  • Brake fluid level and condition
     
  • Calipers and hoses for leaks
     
  • Parking brake operation
     

We’ll walk you through what we find — no pressure, no guessing, and no upselling.


💸 How Much Do Brake Repairs Cost?


It depends on the vehicle and what parts are worn out. The most common repair is replacing brake pads and rotors, which usually costs a few hundred dollars.

Catching problems early saves you money and helps avoid bigger repairs like calipers or master cylinders.
