Callagy Automotive & Smog provides a complete range of auto repair services for all types of brake systems at our Santa Rosa auto repair shop. Each mechanic at our shop in Santa Rosa knows the importance of your understanding how the brake system in your vehicle plays a vital role in keeping you and your loved ones safe. The parts in the brake system aren't designed to for the life of your auto or truck, wearing down over time as you cruise the roads of Santa Rosa and Sonoma County. The brake pads (aka shoes) are the most frequently provided brake repair we do at our Santa Rosa auto repair shop. That's because each time you press your brake pedal the material making up the brake pad wears down against your vehicle's brake rotor. When the brake pads are allowed to wear down longer than they should the metal surface underneath the pads will contact your brakes' drums (aka rotors). This will not only result in an unsafe driving situation but will require additional repairs and increase your total brake repair cost.

Our mechanic staff stresses to our customers to know when to have the brake system in their vehicle serviced to help keep their brake replacment cost to a minimum. By simply being conscientous of the telltale signs of possible brake failure can help save money on costly brake replacment costs for your car or truck. Your very own intuition of hearing, touch, and sight can be of a significant help to you. Common signs of brake issues may include the appearance of brake warning lights in the dashboard, low or dirty brake fluid, grinding noises, depressing a brake pad and getting a "spongy feeling".
