$69 brake inspection. Free written quote on any repair work. Pad-thickness measurement on all four wheels. Backed by NAPA's nationwide warranty.
When you bring your car in for our brake inspection, we don't just listen to the squeal and quote you a price. We pull all four wheels and actually measure what's left. That's the only way to know whether you need pads, rotors, calipers, or just brake fluid, and what it'll cost.
Here's exactly what's included in our $69 brake inspection:
If everything checks out and your brakes are fine, the $69 was money well spent on peace of mind, and we'll tell you so. If you need work, you'll have a written quote with photos before we touch the brakes.
Brake pricing is one of the harder things to publish on a website, because it depends entirely on what we find when we pull the wheels. Pads only, or pads and rotors? Front, rear, or all four? Common Honda, or specialty European vehicle?
After your $69 inspection, you'll get a written quote with the exact numbers for your vehicle. We won't quote brake work over the phone without measuring first, and we won't replace anything we measured as still in spec.
Most front brake pad-and-rotor jobs land in the $350 to $550 range for common vehicles, but yours might be more or less. We'll tell you exactly. Sunbit and Affirm financing available for larger repairs.
Final quote provided in writing after the inspection. No work begins without your approval.
If you notice any of these symptoms, bring the car in. Brakes are not where you want to save a few weeks.
High-pitched noise when you press the pedal. Usually means pad wear indicators are touching the rotor. Time for pads.
Metal-on-metal sound. The worst sign. Pads are gone, rotors are being damaged. Don't drive on grinding brakes.
Pedal feels mushy or goes lower than it used to. Often air in the lines, low fluid, or master cylinder issue.
Vehicle pulls to one side under braking, or steering wheel vibrates. Could be warped rotors or stuck calipers.
The pads are gone. The rotors are being damaged. The longer you drive, the more expensive the repair gets.
What could have been a $400 pad-and-rotor job becomes a $900 pad-rotor-caliper job. Sometimes worse, depending on what got chewed up.
If your brakes are grinding, get to a shop the same day. We'll get you in, measure everything, and give you a written quote. If we can't safely send you home in your vehicle, we'll tell you.
All qualifying brake repairs are covered by NAPA's nationwide 24-month / 24,000-mile limited warranty on parts and labor, honored at any participating NAPA Auto Care shop in the country.
