Brake Repair

Expert Brake Repair & Service in Graham, WA | Auto Star

Our Complete Brake Repair Services

From pads and rotors to fluid and lines, we handle every component of your vehicle’s braking system with precision and care.

Brake Pad Replacement

Worn brake pads reduce stopping power and can damage other components. We use high-quality ceramic and semi-metallic pads to restore your vehicle’s braking performance and reduce noise.

Rotor Service & Replacement

Warped or worn rotors cause vibrations and unsafe braking. We can resurface rotors to restore a smooth, flat surface or replace them entirely to ensure optimal contact with the brake pads for smooth, effective stopping.

Brake Fluid Exchange

Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which can lead to corrosion and a spongy pedal feel. A complete fluid exchange removes old, contaminated fluid and ensures your hydraulic brake system functions correctly.

Signs You Need Brake Service

Don’t ignore these common warning signs. Your safety depends on it.

1. Squeaking, Squealing, or Grinding Noises

High-pitched squealing often indicates worn brake pads. A harsh grinding sound means the pads are completely gone, and you’re causing expensive damage to the rotors.

2. Vibration or Pulsating in the Pedal or Steering Wheel

If you feel a vibration when you apply the brakes, it’s a common sign that your brake rotors are warped and need to be resurfaced or replaced for smooth operation.

3. Spongy or Soft Brake Pedal

If your brake pedal feels mushy or goes closer to the floor than usual, it could indicate air or moisture in the brake lines or a problem with the master cylinder.

4. Vehicle Pulls to One Side When Braking

This can be caused by a stuck brake caliper or an issue with the brake hose, resulting in uneven braking pressure. It’s a serious safety concern that needs immediate attention.
