Popular Brake Care Services
No matter what model or generation your vehicle is, our Certified Kia Technicians are here to help you get back on the road in a safe and comfortable vehicle. From drums and shoes to pads and rotors, we have the knowledge and capability to perform brake repairs on all Kia vehicles. Some of the most popular services we provide regularly include:
- Inspections and Testing - Frequent inspections and road tests can help us identify malfunctioning brake components, including brake lines, master cylinders, and ABS control modules. When exposed to the elements, these parts are susceptible to corrosion or leaks that can cause expected failures.
- Brake Fluid Replacement - Brake fluid is a type of hydraulic fluid that is compressed to help slow your vehicle down. We have the tools required to provide brake fluid flushes and bleeding, ensuring you can stop on a dime.
- Brake System Repairs - Pads, rotors, shoes, and drums can wear over time, and we're proud to carry Genuine Kia Parts that are designed to fit your vehicle. We also offer rotor resurfacing in certain circumstances, helping you save by avoiding a complete replacement.
- Parking Brake Adjustments - If you have a vehicle with a physical parking brake handle, the components that create tension can loosen over time. Our team can tighten the handle and brake wiring components to ensure you have the proper tension to keep your vehicle in place on hills.
Why Is Brake Service Important?
Keeping up with the brake service intervals of your vehicle is essential to ensure you can stop safely in the city or on the highway. In addition, frequent brake system services can help decrease braking distances, improving comfort and providing additional peace of mind for unexpected hazards that may impede the road ahead. While drivers may not recognize the benefits of properly functioning brakes until after an accident, taking preventative action is one of the best ways to ensure you and your passengers can enjoy time behind the wheel.
Brake Service Intervals For Kia Vehicles
While our Certified Kia Technicians perform a safety inspection at every oil change and tire rotation service, brakes have no pre-determined interval, as replacement is often determined by usage. At Kia of Round Rock, we encourage drivers to have a brake inspection every 20,000-30,000 miles to ensure their vehicle is ready for the road ahead. In addition, Kia vehicles are recommended to receive a brake fluid flush every 30,000 miles as a precaution, as debris and water can cause the brake system to fail unexpectedly.
Please note that weather conditions, driving habits, and operating environments can affect the lifespan of your vehicle's brake components. For additional information related to your vehicle, don't hesitate to contact our service center at 737-270-8451.
