Spitzer Chevrolet Lordstown’s Mission

Spitzer Chevrolet Lordstown is happy to serve as North Jackson, Ohio’s number one destination for all things Chevy. Our dealership is a family-owned and operated location that works overtime to understand and fully address your automotive needs.

Purchasing a new, used, or CPO Chevrolet is a great feeling. Regular servicing is going to ensure that your Chevy has what it needs to continue delivering that satisfying driving experience.

Part of our dealership’s mission is to provide our customers with exceptional brake repair and brake servicing work. Smooth-operating brakes act as a foundational vehicle element that fosters a safe and successful experience behind the wheel. Let’s examine the other ways you’ll benefit from giving your brakes the service that they deserve.

What’s the Importance of Brake Service?

You’re correct in thinking that brake service will ensure that your brakes function properly every time that you engage them. What you might be neglecting is the possibility that infrequent brake service will apply stress to other parts of your braking system. Wear and tear from irregular brake service can negatively impact your car’s rotors, drums, and calipers. The cost of timely brake maintenance is much lower than the bill you’ll rack up from adjacent system damage.

The best thing to do for your Chevy’s brakes is to get service done on time and when any signs of wear appear. You can find more information on brake wear indicators below.

Knowing When to Schedule Your Brakes for Servicing or Repair

Many drivers understandably want to know how often they should service their brakes. Normal use of a Chevy typically leads to a brake pad replacement every 40,000-60,000 miles or on an annual basis. Brake pads need replacement as their friction material wears down over time.

A failure to replace worn brake pads will result in the metal backing grinding against the brake’s rotors. You’ll most likely hear a chirping sound when your brake pad is getting low and needs replacement.

You don’t need to replace your Chevy’s brake rotors over regular intervals. Spitzer Chevrolet Lordstown’s certified technicians can inspect your car’s rotors periodically, so the parts don’t get worn down to their minimal thickness.

Your Chevy’s brakes need brake fluid to function optimally. Pressing down on a Chevy’s brake pedal results in a power transfer that occurs through this fluid. Worn-down fluid can negatively affect your Chevy’s brake stopping power when the fluid absorbs too much water from the atmosphere over time. Most vehicles receive brake fluid maintenance every 3-5 years.

Are you noticing any questionable sounds or bumps during your Chevy’s day-to-day driving? There are several signs that will signal the need for brake service. Pulsing pedals during brake application, soft brake pedals, and squealing brakes are normal precursors to brake repair and service. Some of the less known brake service signs include excessive brake dust on your steering wheel and unusual odor in the wheel area.

You can preserve your Chevy’s brakes by gradually coming to a stop vs. full-on braking and only braking when you need to. Other vehicles up ahead might brake at an unnecessarily high rate which can lead to drivers mirroring their actions.
