This comprehensive approach allows us to identify the exact cause of your brake problems, ensuring an accurate diagnosis and efficient repair.

Worn brake pads are the most common brake issue, and replacing them promptly is essential for your safety.

Rotor Resurfacing and Replacement

Worn or warped rotors can significantly decrease your braking efficiency. Our Salt Lake City brake specialists can determine whether your rotors need resurfacing or complete replacement.

What We Repair

Common Brake Problems We Fix

Squealing or Grinding Noises

Unusual noises when braking are typically warning signs of worn brake pads or rotors. In Salt Lake City's variable climate, these components can wear faster due to temperature fluctuations and road salt during winter months. Our technicians can quickly diagnose and resolve these issues, eliminating annoying noises and preventing more serious brake damage.


Soft or Spongy Brake Pedal

When your brake pedal feels soft or spongy, it often indicates air in the brake lines or a potential fluid leak. This condition is particularly dangerous on Salt Lake County's steep mountain roads, where reliable braking is essential. Our brake specialists will bleed your brake system, replace any damaged brake lines, and ensure your hydraulic system is functioning properly.


Brake Pedal Pulsation or Vibration

Feeling vibrations through your brake pedal typically signals warped rotors. This common issue affects many drivers in the Salt Lake City area, especially those who regularly travel through the Wasatch Front's varying elevations. Our expert technicians can resurface or replace your rotors to restore smooth, consistent braking performance.



ABS Light or Brake Warning Light

Modern vehicles have sophisticated electronic brake systems that require specialized diagnostic equipment when warning lights appear. Our Salt Lake City, Taylorsville, and Clearfield locations are equipped with advanced diagnostic tools to accurately interpret these warning signals and resolve the underlying issues, from sensor malfunctions to more complex ABS problems.

Questions & Answers

Brake Repair FAQs

  • How often should I have my brakes inspected in Salt Lake City?

    We recommend having your brakes inspected at least twice yearly in Salt Lake County due to our unique driving conditions. However, if you frequently drive in mountainous areas like Big or Little Cottonwood Canyons, more frequent inspections may be necessary due to the increased brake wear from steep descents.

  • How do I know if I need new brake pads in my Salt Lake City commute?

    Common signs include squealing or grinding noises, longer stopping distances, or your brake pedal feeling different than usual. In Salt Lake City's stop-and-go traffic, especially along I-15 or Bangerter Highway, brake pads typically last 30,000-50,000 miles, though this varies based on driving habits and conditions.

  • What's the difference between brake service and brake repair near me?

Both are essential to maintain safe stopping power, especially in Utah's variable driving conditions.

  • Can I drive my car if the brake warning light is on in Salt Lake City?

    We strongly recommend against driving with an illuminated brake warning light in Salt Lake City or anywhere else. This warning indicates a potentially serious safety issue. Contact Jones Complete Car Care immediately for assistance, including towing options if necessary.
