What's Included
Your Safety Is Our Priority
Brake failure isn't just an inconvenience - it's a critical safety hazard that puts you, your cargo, and everyone on the road at risk. Here's how we ensure your safety:
Immediate Assessment
When you call with brake issues, we ask specific questions to determine if it's safe to continue driving. If not, we'll advise you to stop immediately and dispatch our fastest available technician.
DOT Compliance
All repairs meet or exceed DOT standards. We document everything for your records and ensure your vehicle passes inspection requirements before you leave.
System-Wide Check
We don't just fix the immediate problem. Our technicians perform a comprehensive brake system inspection to identify any other potential issues that could cause future failures.
Clear Documentation
You receive detailed service reports showing what was inspected, what was repaired, and what might need attention in the future. Perfect for fleet maintenance records.
Our Brake Repair Process
We follow a systematic approach to ensure nothing is missed and your brakes are restored to optimal performance:
Initial Safety Assessment
Upon arrival, we secure the vehicle and perform an initial visual inspection. We'll test the parking brake, check for visible damage, and assess whether it's safe to operate the vehicle for testing.
Comprehensive Diagnostics
Using professional diagnostic tools, we check brake pressure, ABS systems, and electronic brake controls. We measure brake pad thickness, inspect rotors, and test air system components.
Transparent Communication
Before any work begins, we explain exactly what we found, what needs immediate repair, and what can wait. You'll know the time required and get approval before we proceed.
Professional Repair
Our technicians use OEM-quality parts and follow manufacturer specifications. Whether it's adjusting slack adjusters, replacing brake chambers, or rebuilding valves, we do it right.
Testing & Verification
After repairs, we perform multiple tests including brake balance, stopping power, and ABS functionality. We ensure everything meets DOT standards before considering the job complete.
Common Brake Issues We Fix
Air System Leaks
Hissing sounds or slow pressure build-up often indicate air leaks. We locate and repair leaks in lines, fittings, and valves to restore proper pressure.
Worn Brake Pads
Squealing, grinding, or reduced stopping power means it's time for new pads. We stock heavy-duty pads for all major truck brands.
Slack Adjuster Problems
Improper adjustment causes uneven braking and premature wear. We adjust or replace automatic slack adjusters to ensure balanced braking.
ABS Malfunctions
Warning lights or erratic braking behavior require immediate attention. We diagnose and repair ABS sensors, modules, and wiring issues.
Brake Chamber Failures
Damaged diaphragms or springs can cause brake drag or failure. We carry replacement chambers and can rebuild certain types on-site.
Contaminated Brake Fluid
In hydraulic systems, contaminated fluid causes poor performance. We flush systems and replace fluid to restore proper operation.
Service Coverage Area
We provide mobile brake repairs throughout the I-77 corridor including:
