What does a brake service include?
A complete brake service includes inspection of pads, rotors, calipers, brake lines, and fluid — followed by replacement of whatever is worn beyond safe limits, with a road test to confirm.
Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time and lowers the boiling point — flush recommended every 2-3 years
Rotors can often be machined instead of replaced if within spec
Caliper slide pins must be lubricated to prevent uneven pad wear
Some pads include a lifetime pad warranty — ask about coverage
Road test after service is non-negotiable for confirming safe stopping
