Brake Shop

Your braking system is made up of multiple components that work together to slow and stop your vehicle safely. Over time, normal driving causes wear to brake pads, rotors, and other brake components. At RUSH Diesel & Automotive, we provide comprehensive brake services designed to restore braking performance and keep your vehicle safe in all driving conditions.

Our technicians service all types of gas vehicles and use modern inspection methods to accurately diagnose brake issues. Whether you need routine brake maintenance or more extensive repairs, we are equipped to handle the job efficiently and correctly.

Brake problems often develop gradually, but ignoring early warning signs can lead to unsafe driving conditions and higher repair costs. If you notice any of the following symptoms, it is important to schedule a brake inspection as soon as possible:

• Squeaking, squealing, or grinding noises when braking
• Vibrations or pulsations in the brake pedal
• A brake pedal that feels soft, spongy, or sinks to the floor
• Increased stopping distance
• Pulling to one side when braking
• Brake warning lights or ABS warning lights on the dashboard
• A burning smell after driving or braking

These symptoms may indicate worn brake pads, warped rotors, brake fluid issues, or problems with calipers or the ABS system. Our team will identify the issue and recommend the appropriate repair.

Brake pads are designed to wear down over time and should be replaced before they become too thin. Worn brake pads reduce stopping power and can damage other brake components if not addressed.

We replace brake pads using high-quality components that meet or exceed manufacturer specifications. Proper brake pad replacement helps ensure quiet operation, smooth braking, and consistent stopping performance.

Brake rotors play a critical role in stopping your vehicle. Warped, worn, or damaged rotors can cause vibrations, noise, and reduced braking efficiency.

Our technicians inspect rotors for thickness, wear patterns, and heat damage. When necessary, we recommend rotor replacement to restore smooth and reliable braking performance.

Many modern vehicles are equipped with anti-lock braking systems that help maintain control during emergency braking. If your ABS warning light is on, it indicates a problem that should not be ignored.

We provide ABS diagnostics to identify sensor issues, wiring problems, or control module concerns. Proper ABS function is essential for maintaining vehicle stability and control in sudden stopping situations.

Brake calipers apply pressure to the brake pads and rotors to slow your vehicle. Sticking or malfunctioning calipers can cause uneven brake wear, pulling, or overheating.

Our brake services include caliper inspection, repair, and replacement to ensure balanced braking and consistent performance.

Routine brake maintenance helps extend the life of your braking system and reduces the risk of unexpected repairs. Regular inspections allow us to catch worn components early and recommend service before safety is compromised.

Preventative brake maintenance includes periodic inspections, fluid checks, and addressing minor issues before they become major problems.
