Signs It’s Time for a Brake Service


Your car's brakes play a key role in ensuring your safety while driving. So it's important to keep them maintained to avoid any risks or additional damage to other parts of the vehicle if left unchecked. Here are some warning signs to look out for:


  • Squealing or grinding noises when braking.
  • A spongy or soft brake pedal.
  • Vibrations when applying the brakes.
  • Longer stopping distances.


At Fischer Automotive our expertise lies in brake services including repairs and replacements, for your vehicle's braking system; from changing brake pads and examining brake fluid to ensuring the system functions effectively so your car comes to a halt when necessary. 


How to Spot Clutch Problems Early


The clutch is a part that works hard but often gets overlooked until it begins to show signs of trouble. Common indicators of clutch problems include: 


  • Difficulty shifting gears.
  • A burning smell during gear changes.
  • A slipping clutch, where the engine revs but the car doesn’t accelerate.


If you encounter any of these problems with your vehicle's clutch system. Our experts are equipped to examine and carry out repairs or replacements to ensure your car functions well.

  • Ensures proper coolant levels.
  • Prevents rust and corrosion in the cooling system.
  • Identifies leaks or blockages early.
