Brake Services

Brake services are essential to keeping your car maintained and safe. Here at Harmon Expert Auto Services we have all of your automotive needs covered!

Brake Services

Brakes are an incredibly important feature of your car for the safety of you and your passengers. If your brakes are making squealing, grinding or scraping sounds, be sure to take your vehicle to Harmon Expert Auto Service for prompt and affordable service you can trust. Our experienced technicians, conveniently located in downtown La Porte, Indiana, provide repair and replacement services for brakes and brake pads for vehicles of all types. 

Over time, we become familiar with our vehicle’s brakes. We know how they sound, how the pedal feels beneath our foot and generally how quickly our car will stop. One day, likely due to friction and heat, your car doesn’t slow down as quickly as it used to, or your brakes make a terrible noise. That’s when you know it’s time to call the experts at Harmon Auto.

WARNING SIGNS OF BRAKE FAILURE:

Brake Light Is On

We have all seen our dashboard lights come on and when they do, it doesn't mean we should ignore them. It is always better to have it checked.

Squealing and Grinding Noise

These noises are clear warning signs of failure of the brake pads. This means that the pads are worn down to almost nothing and that metal is scraping on the brake rotor.

Spongey Brakes

When the lines are low in fluid, it’s much easier to press the pedal to the floor without the vehicle stopping

Leaking Brake Fluid

The braking system is based on hydraulics, when there’s not enough fluid in the lines, the brakes won’t work.

Experiencing Brake Issues? Call Harmon To Schedule An Inspection Now

Not sure if you need a brake inspection? If you experience any of the following, call Harmon: 

  • Your brake pedal presses farther to the floor than usual 
  • Your vehicle pulls to one side when you brake
  • You hear unusual noises or feel vibrations while braking
  • Your steering wheel shakes 
  • Your car wobbles when you drive at highway speeds

Routine Brake Maintenance, Including Brake Pad Replacement

Even if your brakes are functioning normally, your vehicle still needs routine brake maintenance. The technicians at Harmon Expert Auto are ready to assess what may need some attention within your brake system. It is recommended that brake pads and discs be replaced every 25,000-70,000 miles depending on your vehicle type and driving habits. We’ll inspect all aspects of our brake system, service or repair what’s needed, and get you safely back on the road.
