Brake Repair You Can Trust
Your brakes are the most important safety system on your car, truck, or SUV. At Northwest Autoworks, our ASE certified technicians handle brake work for drivers all over Chicago's Northwest Side, from a simple pad replacement to rotors, calipers, and ABS problems. You get an upfront quote before any work begins, and nothing gets done until you say so.
Signs Your Brakes Need Attention
- Squealing or grinding when you brake. Many pads have a small wear indicator that squeals when they get thin. Grinding often means metal is rubbing on metal.
- A soft or spongy pedal, or a pedal that sinks closer to the floor than it used to.
- Pulling to one side when you stop.
- Vibration in the steering wheel or brake pedal when braking.
- The brake warning light is on.
Noticing any of these? Don't wait. Brake problems usually get worse, and more expensive, the longer they go. Bring it in and we'll inspect your brakes for free. Same-day service is available most days, and walk-ins are always welcome.
What Our Brake Service Covers
- Brake pads, front or rear
- Rotors and calipers
- ABS diagnosis and repair
- Related suspension work: shocks, struts, and alignments
How fast brakes wear depends on how and where you drive. Stop-and-go city traffic is harder on pads and rotors than highway miles, so city drivers often need brake work sooner than they expect. We'll explain what we find in plain English, and you decide what to fix.
