At our Nissan service center near Woodbridge, NJ, we have the expertise and the tools to ensure your vehicle is running properly all summer long. One aspect of vehicle care that is often overlooked is brake service. With our help, you’ll learn the how, the why, and the when of brake service.

Repairing, servicing, or replacing your brakes is a crucial element in regular auto maintenance. Brakes are responsible for stopping your vehicle and keeping you, and others, safe on the road. There are several factors that contribute to brake wear, such as normal use. Engaging in frequent stop-and-go traffic, aggressive driving, and hard braking are additional culprits.

While different kinds of brake pads have different mileage ranges, sometimes as wide as 25,000-70,000 miles, your vehicle manual can tell you more about your specific range. Our professionals can take a look at your brakes when you stop by for other routine services and let you know their condition. As a general rule, if your brakes have worn lower than ¼ inch, they need to be replaced. 

You might also need brake service if you notice your Nissan car having brake-related symptoms. For example, if your vehicle makes a squealing or squeaking sound, or vibration, upon braking. Your vehicle pulling to one side or generally experiencing difficulty coming to a stop are additional indicators. 

Whether you need a fluid flush or new brake pads, we have what you need here in our Nissan service center in Avenel, NJ. We want to keep brake service as affordable as possible, so make sure you check our website or call to inquire about any current service specials. We can’t wait to work with you on brake service today!
