Stopping should be guaranteed
Even the most reliable braking system can fail. The weight of semi-truck trailers places a lot of strain on brake components and can cause issues over time. For your safety, and for the safety of everyone around you on the road, make sure to get your brakes serviced and maintained regularly.
When to seek out service
Air brake pads generally need replacing every 50,000 miles. But how much your tires wear varies based on your use of the vehicle, the weight of your cargo, road conditions and exposure to the elements. Here are a few things to look out for:
Grinding when braking
A grinding sound while braking is a sign your pads are likely worn to the point where the calipers are grinding against your rotors. Seek service immediately. Not doing so can result in damage to your rotors and end up costing you much more in repairs.
Your truck pulls to the left or right
If you’re noticing pulling while driving, this might indicate issues with your calipers or air brake hose. It can also indicate issues with the alignment of your tires, but regardless, you should have your truck serviced as soon as possible.

Excellent service! The technician was very friendly and helpful front the minute I pulled in until I left. Everything was explained, pricing confirmed and I couldn't ask for a better interaction. It was a just simple oil change and new wiper blades, but he took the time to make sure I had the current special or discount. I can appreciate that.Excellent service!

After my truck was having trouble shifting while in drive, I brought it to this shop. They checked it out and found that the sensors weren't working properly and replaced them accordingly. My automatic drives great now and I have them to thank for it! Tyler and Eric were awesome to talk to and I will bring my truck back to this shop if I ever have future issues!After my truck was having trouble shifting while in drive, I brought it to this shop.
