Brakes

Explore Expert Brake Service with the Team at Ferman Volvo Cars of Tarpon Springs

Your vehicle brakes do more than just help you stop. They help control the safety of you and your passengers, especially in heavily-trafficked situations. Your brakes help avoid accidents, and when they aren't at peak performance level, they might not give you enough time to react safely. That's why regular brake maintenance is important for your Volvo, and that's what the team at our Volvo service center offer.

We offer a variety of routine maintenance and service needs to keep your Volvo driving at a top-level. Our Volvo-trained team knows everything there is to know about your Volvo vehicle, and we only use genuine parts to ensure that you drive safely and smoothly for a long time. When it comes to your brakes, knowing the signs that indicate you might need service is important and can help you save money in the long run!

Signs You Might Need New Brakes

When it comes to your Volvo's brakes, you might experience some signs that signal your brakes need a replacement. These include:

• The Nose of Your Vehicle Pulls to One Side When You Brake
• You Hear a Squealing Noise when You Hit the Brakes
• It Takes Longer to Bring the Car to a Stop
• The Brake Pedal Vibrates when Pressed

How Often Should You Change Your Brakes?

Typically, most brake pads need to be switched out every 50,000 miles. Some might require 25,000 miles while others can reach up to 70,000 before they need to be replaced. This depends on what kind of driver you are and the conditions that you typically drive through. We recommend that you refer to your owner's manual and pay attention to the signs that your vehicle gives you when your brakes need a change.

If you happen to notice any of these signs occurring, you should reach out to our service team, and we'll get you in for an appointment.

We look forward to providing you with world-class service and genuine Volvo parts to take care of your service needs. Give us a call today, and we'll get you in for an appointment as soon as possible!
