⚠️ What happens if you skip it? ⚠️
Brake issues rarely fix themselves — delaying diagnosis can cause rotor damage, fluid leaks, or complete brake failure. Prompt testing ensures safe stopping and saves you from expensive repairs later.
$600-$1,200
Replace Front Brake Pads and Rotors
Your front brakes handle most of your vehicle’s stopping power — and over time, heat and friction wear down both the pads and rotors. When that happens, you might hear squealing, feel vibration, or notice it takes longer to stop.
$600 - $1,200
Replace Rear Brake Pads and Rotors
Your rear brakes may handle less stopping power than the front, but they’re essential for balance, stability, and safety. Over time, brake pads and rotors wear down from heat and friction, leading to noise, vibration, and reduced braking efficiency.
$638
Replace Rear Drum Brakes
Replacing rear drum brakes is crucial for maintaining effective braking performance and ensuring vehicle safety. Regular replacement ensures optimal brake function, contributes to overall vehicle stability, and provides reliable stopping power, especially in emergency situations.
How It Works
We perform a comprehensive diagnostic using advanced tools and careful inspection.
1. Visual Brake Inspection
Check pads, rotors, calipers, and lines for wear or leaks.
2. Fluid Test & Pressure Check
Evaluate moisture, contamination, and hydraulic pressure.
3. Emissions and Visibility Checks
Confirm mirrors, windows, and windshield meet visibility standards.
4. Road Test
Assess brake feel, noise, and vibration under real driving conditions.
5. Electronic Scan (if equipped)
Read ABS or electronic brake system fault codes.
6. Explain Results
Review findings and credit the diagnostic toward any approved service.

“Awesome service and quick turnaround for brake service. Not to mention that the car pickup and cleaning services were complimentary.”
- TSUBASA P.Yes — if you approve the recommended repair or service, we waive the $100 diagnostic fee.
It depends — some warnings are sensor-related, but others signal low fluid or serious faults. It’s safest to have it checked immediately.
Usually due to worn pads or debris caught between the rotor and pad. We’ll inspect and confirm the cause.
Yes, we scan for ABS, traction control, and stability system faults during every diagnostic.
That’s often due to uneven pressure or a sticking caliper — we’ll pinpoint the side and fix the issue.
All repairs performed after diagnosis are covered by our Roda 12-month / 12,000-mile warranty, including both parts and labor for complete peace of mind.
