The importance of your vehicle’s brakes cannot be understated. At Tom Wood’s service center, we want to ensure you’re driving with confidence, and that includes your vehicle’s ability to safely stop when needed. Check out how services like brake pad replacement, fluid checks, and rotor resurfacings can optimize your vehicle’s stopping power!
Brake Pad Replacement
As one of the three main components in your vehicle’s brakes, maintaining your brake pads should be a top priority. Every press of the brakes causes slight wear on the brake pads, thus requiring regular replacement to operate properly.
We recommend having your brake pads replaced every 10,000 to 20,000 miles to keep your brakes feeling sharp on the road.
Brake Fluid Check
All Toyota vehicles utilize hydraulic brakes, which means they need brake fluid to pressurize the calipers.
Because the amount of brake fluid consumed by your vehicle varies, our trained technicians will check your vehicle’s brake fluid level with every inspection and keep you updated on when a refill is required.
Brake Rotor Resurfacing
Your vehicle’s true source of stopping power, the brake rotors require resurfacing from time to time to maintain proper friction with the brake pads.
This process keeps your rotors smooth, ensuring maximum contact with the brake pads, and should be done every 50,000 to 70,000 miles for optimum brake effectiveness.
Could it be time for a trip to the Tom Wood service center? Your vehicle’s brakes may be crying for help, and you don’t even know it yet! Don’t let a problem as simple as a worn-down brake pad cause you trouble, reach out to set up your visit to the Tom Wood Porsche service center or schedule online!
