Winston-Salem drivers book brake pads & rotors with Wrench Rescue because it's finished where the car sits. Coming up I-40 to Winston-Salem is a normal run for us, and Forsyth County is squarely inside our hour.
Why Winston-Salem drivers book mobile brake pads & rotors
Winston-Salem is the far east end of our hour on I-40. We take jobs on the west and south sides of the city and quote drive time up front. For brake pads & rotors, that means no tow, no ride-share to a shop, and no day off work — we do the job on site and you get your keys back the same visit.
What's included
Brakes are the job people are most nervous about handing to a mobile mechanic, and they shouldn't be. Pads and rotors come off with the wheels, and a driveway is a fine place to do it right. We use quality ceramic or semi-metallic pads, new rotors instead of thin machined ones, and we bed the brakes in on a road test before we hand back the keys.
- Measure pad thickness and rotor condition on all four corners
- Remove calipers, inspect slide pins and boots, clean and lubricate
- Install new rotors and pads with proper anti-squeal hardware
- Check caliper pistons for sticking and brake fluid condition
- Torque everything to spec, pump the pedal, and bed the pads in
- Road-test and confirm straight, quiet stopping
Signs it's time
- Squealing or grinding when you brake
- Pulsing or shaking in the pedal or steering wheel
- Brake warning light on the dash
- The car takes longer to stop than it used to
- A burning smell after driving
