FAQs

How long does a brake pad replacement take?

Maintaining your vehicle's braking system is crucial to preventing accidents caused by critical failure. MOTEC's expert mechanics advise that as your braking system's components eventually wear out from normal wear and tear, they will need replacing every 10,000 to 20,000 miles on average. Replacing brakes, including rotors and pads, typically takes between 30 minutes to an hour.

How long does a car's starter last?

Our mechanics advise that a car's starter typically lasts between 100,000 and 150,000 miles, depending on various factors such as driving habits and maintenance practices.

What are the signs of brakes going bad?

If you're experiencing any of the following signs, it's likely that your brakes are in bad condition: the dashboard brake light comes on, you hear squealing noises, or you feel vibrations while using the brake pedal. Driving with faulty brakes compromises your safety and the safety of your passengers. To prevent accidents, it's crucial to schedule a brake service as soon as possible when you notice any of these warning signs.
