Brakes & Brake Repair

Simply put, if your brakes are not working properly, you, your family and everyone on the road are at risk. Brakes are the most important safety attribute on our vehicles today. So, your brakes should be checked at least yearly.

In most cases you should specify to have the brakes looked at while having the oil changed. We at Benefield Automotive check brakes that are visible without pulling of the tires while underneath the vehicle doing the oil change. We do this as a courtesy for the customer as we know in today’s work force scheduled maintenance can be easily forgotten. We have partnered with multiple Brake Part Companies such as; Wagner, Bendix, Raybestos, Brembo, AC Delco, Akebono, EBC, Motorcraft to offer the highest quality products for both foreign and domestic automobiles . Our certified ASE technicians can properly diagnose and repair vehicles equipped with ABS (antilock brakes) and or conventional brakes. Come in today to have Benefield Automotive ASE certified technicians inspect and or replace your brakes today.
