Common Brake Repair Services in Houston, Texas
Slack Adjuster Service
Your slack adjusters are designed to take up the slack as your brake pads wear down. If your slack adjusters were to malfunction or fail, your brakes would perform significantly worse, as all of the components in your brake drum assembly would have to travel much farther than normal. Fortunately for anyone having slack adjuster issues, we here at Gomez Diesel Repair in Houston, Texas, provide a wide swath of services designed to get your brake assembly back in good shape.
Brake Pad Replacements
Over time, brake pads wear down and need to be replaced. Fortunately, your slack adjuster makes up for this wear, but this isn’t a permanent solution. Brake pads can only last so long before there’s nothing left! We highly recommend getting your brake pads inspected whenever you get an oil change. Our mechanics will inform you of how much life is left in your brake pads, as well as any warning signs that they may discover.
Overheating Brakes
Are your brakes overheating? If so, you may have a malfunctioning slack adjuster or seized brake shoe. Be sure to bring your truck in for service right away if one or more of your brakes start to overheat!
