With safety as our standard, we’ll take care of you, bumper to bumper.

Those Brakes Matter Every Time You Drive

Your brakes are your first line of defense in an emergency. A few extra feet of stopping distance can make all the difference. Safety starts with a strong braking and suspension system, and we’ve got you covered. For suspension issues, we address shocks, struts, and alignment to restore smooth handling and stability. Whether it’s a squeaky brake, a bumpy ride, or a brake fluid replacement in Texas, we diagnose and resolve the issue quickly and efficiently. Our technicians perform comprehensive brake inspections, fluid checks, and pad replacements to ensure your car stops effectively.

Signs Your Brakes or Suspension May Need Attention

  • Squealing or grinding when braking
  • Spongy or stiff brake pedal
  • Vehicle nose-dives when braking
  • Uneven or rapid tire wear
  • Car pulls left or right while driving
  • Excessive bouncing after bumps
  • Clunking noises from the undercarriage

Our Brake Services Include

When it comes to your safety on the road, nothing matters more than reliable brakes and a strong suspension system. We’ll dive deep into the performance, condition, and stability of your entire brake and suspension setup to make sure every drive is smooth, controlled, and safe. We offer the following:

  • Brake Service
    Drive with confidence knowing your brakes are inspected, repaired, or replaced for optimal stopping power. We examine pads, rotors, calipers, brake lines, and fluid levels to identify wear, leaks, or failure points. We’ll show you exactly what we find before doing anything else.
  • Brake Flush
    Protect your braking system by removing old fluid and replacing it with fresh, clean brake fluid. Old brake fluid can absorb moisture and lead to a soft pedal feel or corrosion in your brake system. Our flush clears that out and replaces it with fresh, high-performance brake fluid.
  • Alignment Service
    Improve vehicle handling and reduce tire wear with precise alignment services tailored to your needs. If your car pulls to one side or your steering wheel is off-center, it could be your alignment. We use computerized tools to get your wheels back in perfect sync, improving handling and extending tire life.
  • Shocks & Struts
    Enjoy a smoother, safer ride with professional shocks and struts inspections and replacements. These components don’t just cushion your ride, they keep your wheels planted on the road. We replace worn-out shocks and struts to restore that like-new ride quality and keep your vehicle stable.

Commonly Asked Questions

How often should I replace my brake pads?
Typically every 30,000–70,000 miles, depending on your driving habits and vehicle type. We check your pads at every visit and give you an honest update.

How do I know if my shocks or struts are worn?
If your ride feels rough, bouncy, or unstable, or if the front end dives when braking, it’s likely time for replacement. Most shocks and struts last about 50,000 miles.

Can I drive with squeaky brakes?
Squeaky brakes can be harmless or serious. It might be a wear indicator telling you it’s time to replace the pads. Come in and we’ll check it for free.

Our alignment service usually takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the vehicle. You’ll leave with a car that tracks straight and handles like a dream.
