Owning a Volvo comes with several responsibilities, and routine care and maintenance rank among them. Brakes wear out with use, so they need regular inspection and repair work. Volvo Cars of Exeter wants to help York, ME Volvo owners stay on top of brake work and repairs. Our technicians stand at the ready to lend assistance.

Signs of Brake Problems

Anyone who hears grinding, squealing or other noises when pressing down on the brakes might wish to get things checked out. The various parts in the brake system could be wearing down. If the brake pedal must go all the way to the floor to stop a vehicle, take that as a red flag. Burning smells and the Volvo "pulling" to the side when driving might also indicate serious problems.

Dover, NH Volvo owners who notice fluid on the ground likely have a leak. The leak could be the brake fluid, and low brake fluid levels might not generate enough hydraulic power to stop the vehicle. Brake lines can develop rust over time, and they could snap and allow fluid to leak out entirely. We can determine what the leak is and fix it in no time.

Getting Brakes Checked Out

Bringing your Volvo in from Portsmouth for a brake inspection is a good idea when problems with your brakes arise. Why wait for a problem to manifest when an inspection may uncover the issue early? Many owners have their brakes inspected every six months or 6,000 miles. Owners often have brake inspections done with tire rotations and other service bundles.
