How Often Should You Get Brakes Service?
Brake pads typically last 25,000 to 70,000 miles depending on driving habits and conditions. We recommend a brake inspection every 12 months or 15,000 miles. Brake fluid should be flushed every 2-3 years to maintain proper braking performance. In stop-and-go traffic or hilly terrain, brakes may wear faster and require more frequent service.
