A CLOSER LOOK AT WEAR

Know your brake pad wear

These examples show remaining friction material, excluding the metal backing plate. Your vehicle’s manufacturer sets the applicable wear limits. We measure pad condition and explain what your brakes need.

Brake-pad thickness examples: 8 mm good, 5 mm monitor wear, 3 mm replace soon and 1 mm replace immediately. Measurements exclude the metal backing plate. Follow manufacturer limits.

GOOD TO KNOW

Your questions, answered.

How do I know if my brakes need replacing?

Squealing, grinding, pulling to one side, a soft pedal, or the brake warning light are all signs.

How much does a brake job cost?

We provide a transparent written estimate before any work begins — no surprises.

Does MotorXcel warranty brake repairs?

Yes. All brake repairs are backed by our parts and labor warranty.

How long does brake service take?

A standard pad replacement takes 1–2 hours. We give you an accurate time estimate before starting.

Is your work covered by a warranty?

Yes. MotorXcel offers a 12-month/12,000-mile warranty. Ask us what it covers for your repair.
