Big Chief Tire – Brake Repair Service Frequently Asked Questions
If you notice squeaking, grinding, or a soft brake pedal, it may be time for brake pad or rotor replacement. Other warning signs include vibrations when braking, longer stopping distances, or a brake warning light on your dashboard. If you experience any of these issues, schedule a free brake inspection at Big Chief Tire.
Grinding noises often indicate worn brake pads, a buildup of rust around your rotors, or excess debris like mud or road salt caught in the brake system. Don’t wait to repair your brakes. Learn more about our brake repair service.
Brake fluid should typically be replaced every 50,000 miles or when a brake fluid test strip indicates high moisture content. Here’s how to tell if your brake fluid has gone bad.
The lifespan of a set of brake pads depends heavily on several factors, including your driving style. In general, you should expect brake pads to last anywhere from 30,000 to 70,000 miles. It is recommended that brake pads be inspected at each rotation, and rotations are recommended every 5,000-7,500 miles. Read more about how long brake pads last.
Brake repair costs vary depending on your vehicle, the type of brake pads, and whether rotors need resurfacing or replacement. At Big Chief Tire, we offer affordable brake repair services with transparent pricing. Contact us for a free estimate on brake service.
Most brake repairs, including brake pad replacement and rotor resurfacing, take about 1-2 hours. More extensive repairs, such as brake caliper replacement, may take longer. We offer same-day service at all Big Chief Tire locations so you can get back on the road safely and quickly.
In some cases, you can replace brake pads without replacing the rotors. However, if the rotors are worn, warped, or below the minimum thickness, they should be replaced to ensure optimal braking performance and prevent premature pad wear.
