Your brakes are arguably the most important part of your car — you rely on them to bring you safely to a stop when you press the pedal, so when something goes wrong with them, it can be understandably alarming. When your brakes are in question, so is your safety.
When you notice a problem with your brakes in your European vehicle, DJ Auto Werks is here to help. We specialize in European imports, with licensed and certified technicians who know exactly how to restore or enhance the stopping power you demand.
Experience Matters
Your brakes are located on each wheel, and they use friction to slow the rotational energy of the wheels so you can slow down and stop where desired. They are complex systems using hydraulic fluid, mechanical parts, computer controls, friction material, and electrical sensors. Some systems on hybrid vehicles also use generators on each wheel to put power back into the battery pack when slowing the vehicle to a stop.
Brake pads and rotors take a massive amount of abuse, as they are the main component that turns the rotational energy into heat. This means that these parts are designed to wear out over time, so it’s important to inspect your brakes regularly…usually at every tire rotation or anytime the wheels of your vehicle are removed.
Quality Maintenance and Repairs
Every mile you drive contributes to the wear and tear of your vehicle’s brake system, which makes brake maintenance an essential part of owning a vehicle. Often, the first sign that something is going wrong with your brakes is a grinding noise or squealing sound. Whether you need some basic brake maintenance or some more intensive diagnostics and repairs, DJ Motorwerks is the best choice for your European vehicle.
