Brake repair

Signs it's time

• Squealing or grinding when you stop
• A pedal that pulses, or sinks lower than it used to
• The car pulls to one side under braking
• A brake warning light on the dash

What the job covers: brake pads, rotors, calipers, and brake fluid.

I had a great experience with Arnold. He is not only an excellent mechanic but also a wonderful person. He is honest, trustworthy, and a man of strong principles. He has worked on two of the cars in my family. First, he worked on our 2005 Acura and left it running like new. Later, he did a full maintenance on a 2013 Hyundai Sonata — he replaced the rotors, brake pads, and spark plugs literally in two hours and basically tuned the car. It felt like driving a new car again. Arnold is extremely knowledgeable and takes pride in his work. I recommend him with complete confidence.

My A/C in my car stopped working and I went to one of the big shops to get it working. They put freon in the car and it started working. I was told I need to keep dial on low. I did exactly that. I paid over two hundred dollars to get this…
