Brake Repair
​
A vehicle's brakes are one of its most important safety features, and we want to make sure that Tito's Car Care Center customers stay safe. Whether your brake pads are signaling they need replacement, your brake light is on, or you're not comfortable with how quickly your vehicle is slowing down, call us at (336) 986-9736 or visit us in Winston-Salem and we'll give you a prompt diagnosis of your braking system's safety and reliability.
​
Anti-Lock Brake System
Anti-lock Brake Systems (ABS) ensure that the wheels don't stop rotating during braking, preventing the car from skidding and offering greater control. If your ABS light comes on, visit Tito's Car Care Center where we will be happy to diagnose and fix the problem.
​
Brake Fluid Flushes
Brake fluid will absorb water from the air over time, causing the brake system to become less effective and the fluid to become corrosive, possibly damaging the system. It is important to perform a brake fluid flush regularly to ensure that your vehicle is using fresh fluid. Talk to our technicians at Tito's Car Care Center about when it's time for a brake fluid flush.
​
Brake Hoses
A brake hose is a tube carrying pressurized brake fluid from the master cylinder to the brakes. A crushed hose can cause a lagged or slow brake, and a leak in the hose can cause the brake, or the entire brake system, to fail. These don't need to be replaced often, but should be replaced at the first sign of cracking or wear.
​
Brake Pad & Shoe Replacement
Brake pad problems can usually be identified by squealing brakes. If your brake pads deteriorate completely, you'll hear a grinding metal-on-metal sound when braking, meaning that it's too late and you're ruining your rotors or drums! Those with knowledge of auto repair may be able to fix this at home, but you should always see an auto repair professional immediately if you have brake problems.
​
Caliper Replacement
The brake caliper houses your brake pads and fits around the rotor like a clamp, pressing the pads against the rotor when you brake. A brake caliper problem could cause uneven braking, making your car slide forward when you brake. Uneven braking can also cause your vehicle to slide out of control in bad weather conditions, so contact Tito's Car Care Center as soon as possible.
​
Resurface Rotors
In a disc brake system, rotors are attached to your vehicle's wheels. When the brake pads grip the rotor, they bring both the rotor and wheels to a stop. However, the friction causes grooves and cracks to appear over time. Resurfacing brings the rotor back to a "like-new" condition, reducing squealing and wobbling. Tito's Car Care Center will give your rotors a thorough inspection and recommend your best course of action.

Since I have started using Tito’s Auto Service it has been an answer my prayers. Having someone I can trust to give great service and a wonderful experience. Everyone is so polite and professional and will you information on your vehicle you didn’t know. Overall this is where I will be unless they leave our area. Thanks to all of you for giving us just what we needed. - Robert F. -
Wow! We are very impressed with the professionalism, kindness, and willingness to help us out with our schedule, budgeting, and obviously fixing what we needed repaired. We took our van to somewhere else twice to fix the same problem and spent so much money to continue to have the same problem. We can already tell what a difference someone actually fixing it feels like! Thank you!!
We do plan to come back here again :) - Melissa T. -
