Regular maintenance of your vehicle’s brakes is essential for safe driving. Waiting too long to do so can lead to serious problems that may require expensive brake replacements. While we recommend periodic brake inspections throughout the year, spring is an ideal time to get your car in perfect working condition.
Brake Maintenance and Our Harsh Winters
Spring marks a transition between cold and warm seasons, and your vehicle has likely endured the rigors of winter. That’s why a complete inspection of your brakes, including cleaning and lubricating components, is essential to ensure their proper functioning.
Our CAA Quebec garage offers comprehensive brake maintenance services for your car, including a thorough inspection of all parts, including calipers, rotors, and brake pads. We clean all contact surfaces to remove any rust or corrosion, and then apply a special high-temperature paint coating to protect the caliper surfaces against corrosion.
Improving Brake Efficiency
We also use silicone grease to improve the efficiency of your brake pads and replace elements showing signs of wear to ensure their proper functioning. We tighten all fasteners to the manufacturer’s recommended torque specifications and test your brakes by driving cautiously for about ten minutes, braking several times to ensure everything is working properly.
