No matter how advanced the safety systems in your Volkswagen model are, there is nothing more important to your safety than the brakes. At Brooklyn Volkswagen, serving Brooklyn and Queens, we want to help make sure that you and your family are safe. This is why we offer quality Volkswagen brake services to drivers in Jamaica, Rego Park, and beyond. Learn more about these services here, and then come visit us at Brooklyn Volkswagen.
Regular brake inspections can help you stay on top of the condition of your brakes. Our technicians will inspect the thickness and condition of your brake pads and brake rotors, as well as checking to make sure that the brake fluid is not leaking.
If your brake pads’ lining is too thin, our technicians will replace them for you. The lining is made of a softer material that is designed to protect the metal rotors from friction damage while still effectively bringing your VW to a stop. When the lining gets too thin, it may make a squealing sound due to built-in wear indicators, this is a sign that you need to get the brake pads replaced as soon as possible. If you ignore this sound, it will be replaced with a metal-on-metal grinding sound that means that your brake system is damaged. Rather than relying on the wear indicators, we recommend having your brakes inspected regularly.
Brake rotors may not need to be changed as often as brake pads, but they will still wear out over time and need to be replaced. However, if brake pads are warped, we may be able to simply resurface them rather than replacing them outright.
The brake fluid in your Volkswagen helps transfer the force of your foot on the brake pedal to the brakes, amplifying this force as it goes. It will pick up water over time, which reduces its effectiveness. For this reason, you will need to have the brake fluid exchanged at the required service intervals.
At Brooklyn Volkswagen, we make it easy to stop by for brake service. Many services like brake inspection and brake pad replacement require no appointment at all, simply use our express service department. If you prefer making an appointment, use our online service scheduler. We look forward to seeing you at Brooklyn Volkswagen!
