What is a Brake System Inspection?

A brake system inspection is an integral step in ensuring that your Nissan is operating at peak safety performance. During a brake inspection at Suntrup Nissan in St. Louis, MO, one of our factory-trained technicians will do an inspection of the entire braking system to include:

Brake Pedal
Brake Fluid
Brake Lines and Hoses

Brake Assemblies
Parking Brake
Brake Rotors

Why Should the Brake System be Checked?

If your Nissan’s brakes fail to work properly, then you will be unable to stop the vehicle which could lead to a disastrous situation. Consequently, your owner’s manual will outline exactly when the braking system should be checked and when items like the brake calipers and brake pads need to be changed. With that said, the braking system can wear unevenly and even quicker than the manufacturer’s suggestion so we always do a multi-point inspection on each vehicle to ensure that everything from your headlights to your engine is working properly before returning the car to you.

What are the Different Brake Components that Need Attention?

During a Nissan brake system correction, your factory-trained technician will begin by ensuring that the brake pedal height is at the appropriate measurement from the floor to wear the pedal is at rest. If the distance from the pedal to the floor is off, there may be issues with the bushings or springs. At Suntrup Nissan, we always top of your fluids and may do a fluid exchange if we notice dirt or other contaminants in your brake fluid that could cause issues or corrode key components. Additionally, we’ll also check the brake assembly by removing the front and rear wheels to examine the disc brakes and check that the brake pads do not need to be changed.
