Frequently Asked Questions About Our Brake Services

What is a Brake Inspection and What Does it Include?

When you bring your Volvo model to our service center for a brake inspection, our certified technicians will take a comprehensive look at each component of your brakes to ensure they're up for the continued task of slowing you down. Once our team thoroughly inspects your pads, calipers, rotors, and more, they can make any necessary repairs or replacements to get you safely back on the roads.

How Often Should I Get My Brakes Checked?

Even if you don't notice any issues with your brakes, you'll want to bring your Volvo model in for a routine brake inspection every six months. However, you'll want to check your driver's manual for more model-specific recommendations. If you're planning a long road trip, you'll want to schedule an appointment sooner to prepare for the journey.

What are Warning Signs that My Brakes Need to Be Serviced?

As you rely on your brakes to keep you safe and out of harm's way, you'll want to keep an eye out for any usual sounds, sensations, or smells. Some of these warning signs may include:

  • Brake Light - Fortunately, most recent models include a helpful warning light on your gauge display that can alert you when there are any issues detected with your brakes. If you notice this light come on, you'll want to schedule an appointment and allow our certified Volvo technicians to diagnose the cause.
  • Vibrations - If you feel any shaking when you press the brake pedal, this could be a sign that your brakes are ready to be serviced. Most likely, your brakes are worn down and, if ignored, could result in further damage down the road.
  • Screeching, Grinding, or Squealing - As you tackle your daily Gardiner commutes and errands, you won't be able to ignore these unusual noises coming from your vehicle. If you notice any of these sounds, it could mean that your brake pads are worn. Without service, this could result in further damage and costly repairs.
  • Foul Odor - If you notice any bad smells or odors coming from your vehicle or tires, you'll want to bring them in for service as soon as possible. Our technicians will perform a thorough inspection to find the source of the issue.
  • Less Responsive - If you notice that it takes more pressure to slow down or bring your vehicle to a full stop, your brake pads are likely worn. If ignored, this could result in your brakes not working altogether, leaving you with unsafe driving conditions.
