Our brake services will keep your vehicle safe and running smoothly. Our expert technicians are trained to handle all aspects of brake repair and maintenance. Our Dallas brake repairs are designed to provide efficient and high-quality service, ensuring your vehicle's safety and performance.
We offer the following brake services:
Our brake inspections are thorough and help catch issues early. We check brake pads, rotors, and other components for wear and tear. We also offer a free brake inspection to help you identify any potential issues early and provide an estimate for any necessary repairs.
When your brake pads wear down, we can quickly replace them to restore your stopping power. We offer various pad options to suit your needs and budget.
Parking brake problems can be dangerous. We diagnose and fix issues with parking brake cables, levers, and other components.
For enhanced performance, we install top quality rotors. We also service drum brakes on older vehicles or rear axles of some newer models.
After inspection, we decide what work is needed. Often, brake pads need changing. We might replace rotors if they're worn or warped.
Sometimes calipers need fixing or replacing. We also might need to bleed the brake lines to remove air bubbles.
Here's what we commonly replace:
We always use high-quality parts for brake repairs at our local Dallas brake shop.
Knowing when brakes need attention is key. Squealing or grinding noises can mean worn brake pads. A soft or spongy brake pedal can indicate air in the brake lines or other components.
If the car pulls to one side when braking, it might need brake service. Vibration in the steering wheel during braking usually points to warped rotors.
We should check brake fluid levels regularly. Low fluid can mean a leak in the system. Brake warning lights on the dashboard should never be ignored.
Regular brake inspections help catch issues early. This prevents costly repairs and ensures safety on Dallas streets.
"I had an excellent experience at Southwest Auto. It’s been very hard to find a mechanic to work on my old Saab, so I found Jon. He did a thorough diagnostic, emailed me the results, and had me approve the work. It took some time to source parts, but Jon Came through. My car not only made the 200+ mile ride home, it’s running great. Very thankful his shop was recommended."

"I highly recommend Southwest auto for your vehicle repair. Recently, they handled my transmission leak on a 3500 Mercedes Diesel Sprinter Van/Camper. They were efficient, fairly priced, and Cory at the front desk was very communicative during the repair process. They handled the warrantee coverage for me and got me back on the road quickly. I cannot say enough how pleased I was with the service they provided."

Brake job costs in Dallas vary based on the service needed. Basic brake pad replacements usually run $200-$400 per axle. More complex repairs like rotor replacements can cost $500-$700 per axle. Full brake system overhauls may start at $1000+. Costs heavily depend on factory options of the vehicle being serviced.
We recommend brake inspections with every oil service. Brake pads typically last 30,000 to 70,000 miles. Factors like driving habits and local conditions can affect wear. Listen for squealing or grinding noises as signs of needed service.
Worn brake pads are the most frequent repair need. Squealing noises can indicate it's time for new pads. Warped rotors causing pulsation when braking is another common issue. Regular inspections can catch these problems early.
