Braking Service

Honest and Reliable brake check investigations are available at 1st Stop Cars.

Why do I need a regular brake check?

Its important to make sure your brakes are in working order for the safety of your self and other road users.

  • To check for efficiency.
  • To check for brake deviations.
  • To investigate unusual noises.
  • To check brake fluid condition.
  • To check the parking brake system.
  • To look for corrosion.

Rest assured all these checks would be completed as part of your regular annual service. Your yearly MOT will include a check on your cars brake roller efficiency, but does not extend to any  stripping down of the vehicle.

What does a brake investigation include?

  • Brake roller efficiency (as used in a regular MOT test).
  • Brake deviations.
  • Imbalances.
  • General Wear and tear.
  • Brake fluid condition and levels.
  • Parking brake for excessive movement & cables condition.
  • Corrosion of brake lines & brake hoses (for perishing).

Testimonial

On the 4th February 2015, I handed my Toyota Yaris to Kevin White at 1st Stop Cars.

I had already been quoted for the cost of the service and MOT, and was informed of progress throughout the day including any faults that had come to light.

Kevin sought my permission to replace the worn out front brake pads that clearly needed attention based on recent driving performance and noise!

Following a successful MOT, Kevin stayed on beyond opening hours to allow me to get through the traffic to pick up my car. it was not only clean but the drive experience was so much better.

I would not hesitate to recommend 1st Stop Cars services to you.
