Frequently Asked Questions

How often should brake pads be replaced? Most brake pads last between 30,000 to 65,000 miles depending on your driving habits (heavy city stop-and-go vs. highway cruising). We check pad thickness for free during your regular service.

What causes my steering wheel to shake when I brake? A vibrating steering wheel usually indicates warped brake rotors caused by heat and friction. When the rotors are uneven, the brake pads cannot press down flatly, creating that shudder.

Are brake inspections really free? Yes! At Funk Bros. Auto, we offer complimentary baseline inspections so you always know the exact health of your brakes before any work begins.
