Schedule Brake Service for Your Vehicle at Atlantic Hyundai

Brake repair represents a necessary and sometimes common repair for West Islip drivers. Regardless of their quality, Hyundai automobiles must undergo the same routine service as other cars on the road. Atlantic Hyundai understands and specializes in brake servicing and repair. We recommend that you check to see if you need to schedule brake service.

Signs That You Need Brake Repair

Listen for odd sounds coming from the wheels. One of the first signs of caliper or brake pad wear is the sound that comes from erosion along what's left of the pad. The sound is usually a high-pitched whine or squeak that becomes louder the harder you press down on the brake pedal. It'll let up when your foot is released. If you're having this problem, it's a good indicator of needing to schedule a brake repair in the Lindenhurst, NY area.

You can sometimes feel a change in the brakes. Brakes that have started to weaken won't work as they did when strong. You may find yourself pressing harder on the brake pad to get the vehicle to stop, which is another sign you shouldn't ignore as you travel around Deer Park, NY. We strongly advise brake servicing in this case.

Take a look at the brakes from the outside. Another good way of checking the brake is by doing it the old-fashioned way, with a flashlight. Based on the new or certified pre-owned Hyundai you drive, it might be difficult for you to get a visual of brake wear or damage. A flashlight can help with this, but in some cases, you may not have any other choice but to move on to the next step, removing the tires.

Remove your tires for a clear view. For a completely unobstructed view of your Hyundai's brake pads, removing the tire remains the best option. Hyundai brake pads come with an indicator that allows drivers to determine the erosion level of the pad. If this indicator completely wears off, then you should have them serviced and replaced.

Inspect the other wheels, too. If you have your tires balanced on occasion, then your brake pads will simultaneously wear down. Although there are exceptions, this is also the case for Hyundai vehicles. With this in mind, don't forget to inspect the other tires for wear before hitting the streets of Central Islip, NY.

When to Schedule Brake Maintenance

You can avoid many of the issues listed here by simply having your Hyundai looked at by our professionals. We'll service your brakes and check them for all the warning signs of wear, letting you know if there's anything that must get replaced. Wear eventually happens to all cars, and most Hyundai brakes will last between 30,000 to 70,000 miles before requiring a replacement. The controls used to determine these numbers don't factor in the road conditions around West Islip.

Your brakes might need replacing at more frequent intervals than other vehicles. Your driving style may also play a part, especially if you tend to press on the brakes when you don't need to engage. No matter what, we'll get your Hyundai's brakes squared away and repaired or replaced at our service center. Wear between each axle can lead to a serious risk of accidents, and brakes are commonly replaced part on vehicles because of that risk.

The Hyundai brake pads that we sell at our parts center are high-quality and capable of taking you further than brakes built by aftermarket manufacturers. Please don't wait until the brakes completely malfunction on one of our streets.
