Red Flags
Coming to a stop is one of the most important aspects of driving, as it ensures your safety on busy thoroughfares. If you are ever having trouble slowing down on Interstate 275, then we recommend that you visit our dealership. Also, be aware of any screeching noises as you come to a halt. This could be a sign that the brake pads have worn down to dangerous levels. A burning smell may also be detected if you slam on the brakes too hard. Since this can damage the pads, it’s wise to drop by for an inspection soon. You may be able to see the condition of the pads if you look through the slots on your vehicle’s wheel, but contact us if you are not sure what you are searching for.
Testing
Coming to our nearby location for a brake test is smart, as the components usually only last about 30,000 miles. This is an estimate based on normal driving conditions, so always refer back to your Owner’s Manual for more information. The technicians at our Service Department are well-equipped to test the brake pads on your Volkswagen Atlas or Jetta. We will start by taking each wheel off of the car in order to better see the inner workings. If one or more of the pads are deteriorated from repeated use in Wesley Chapel, then we may suggest that you get replacements. We can also check the rotors and brake fluid while we are at it. That way, you will have the utmost peace of mind for your next trip to King Lake!
Replacement
While brakes last a while, they will eventually need to be swapped out for a fresh set. Luckily, we at Volkswagen of Wesley Chapel have a Parts Department that has genuine Volkswagen components. Whether you’re getting two or four brakes, you can bet that they will last for the long haul. The process usually takes 30 minutes per replacement, so feel free to either wait in our lounge or come back when we let you know that the task is complete. We also suggest checking out our current service specials, as you may be able to conserve some cash.
