A brake repair is a comprehensive process that addresses the various components of the vehicle's braking system. It usually begins with a thorough inspection to identify issues such as worn brake pads, damaged rotors, or brake fluid leaks. Depending on the extent of the damage, the repair may involve replacing brake pads, resurfacing or replacing rotors, adjusting calipers, and addressing any issues with brake lines or the master cylinder. The technician may also flush and replace the brake fluid, ensuring that the entire system functions efficiently and safely. The ultimate goal of a brake repair is to restore the vehicle's braking performance, ensuring reliable and responsive stopping power.
