How often do your brakes need to be replaced? This all comes down to you as the driver, how and where you drive. For instance, if you only drive your vehicle to and from work in a smooth freeway commute, you may make it 60,000 miles before you need to service your brakes. However, if you are transporting kids to and from school, have a heavy foot on the brake and gas which reminds you of your racing days. Your brakes could last you as little as 10,000 -15,000 miles. At San Francisco Automotive Solutions we try to give you a heads up before your brakes need to be serviced so you can schedule in a brake repair job into your calendar and budget. We inspect your brake pads and braking system every time you come in for an oil change or other services to make sure they are in good shape and to help you avoid any brake issues. Give us a call to schedule today!
