For brake repair near Ellington, CT, our South Windsor shop is west on Route 140 toward Route 5. Bring your vehicle in for a brake warning light, squealing or grinding, or a brake pedal that feels soft or sinks. Ellington farm-country roads, steep stretches near Crystal Lake, and long winter commutes are tough on brakes, tires, wheel bearings, and anything exposed to salt. A pulsing pedal often comes from uneven rotor deposits or worn rotors, not just "warped" rotors. Grinding usually means the pad material is gone and metal is touching the rotor, which can turn a pad job into a rotor and caliper job. Service can include measured pads and rotors, caliper and slide pin service, brake hose and line inspection, brake fluid testing and exchange, and ABS testing. Many repairs are finished the same day, and most eligible repairs include our 3-year/36,000-mile warranty.
