Brake Service and Repair

Call: (805) 496-3039

Accurate Automotive specializes in servicing your vehicle’s braking needs to assure safe and reliable driving no matter what your braking requirements. Different driving conditions can significantly vary the life of disc and drum brake components. Brake components and fluid levels should be inspected regularly to assure vehicles safety.

Brake Service, Brake Pads

There are a variety of brake pad materials to choose from. Organic, semi metallic and ceramic are the most common. As a rule, we have seen competitors “Lifetime” brake pads wearing out faster than premium pads offered at our location. “Lifetime” pads usually come with a one year warranty on labor. So don’t be fooled. Having to change your brake pads more often will cost you more money in the long run. At Accurate Automotive we recommend OEM, Genuine pads or what suits our customers..

Rotors

Another part of the brake system is the rotor. They are a metal disc that when the pads are compressed against (via the caliper) stop the car. Rotors come from the factory in a certain thickness depending on the application. Once the rotor gets to a minimum, warping and premature pad wear will result. We will replace or re-surface disc brake rotors, replace worn brake pads, and replace faulty disc brake calipers as necessary. We will replace leaking brake lines, and assure your master cylinder system has the correct approved fluid and level. Maintaining your system requires changing the brake fluid biannually to remove moisture and contaminants from the system that could cause premature failure. Call us today

Easy to make appointment, work was explained clearly, no hard sell to do extras. Good communication and work was completed promptly. Nice waiting area with comfortable seating and water and coffee available. Miguel was very helpful.
All around good!
I took in my Kia Sorento to get a full inspection and oil change, and I was so impressed. Miguel was courteous, patient, and professional on the phone and in person. I’ve had experiences at auto places where I felt rushed and overcharged, but Miguel made me feel like this place was honest and passionate about the work they do. I seriously feel like my car is happier after going there. Even my husband commented that the car was driving better. It just felt like the right place to go. Highly recommend!
I’m so glad that someone recommended Accurate Automotive to me. I had a couple things going on with my older Prius, and was really nervous because finances are tight for me at the moment. Miguel was amazing from start to finish, from my call with him first thing in the morning, to letting me bring my car right over, being honest about what needed to be done and what could wait, to securing a piece that had gotten loose for free. And he did everything with professionalism and kindness. If I had gone to the dealer, this would not have been the experience. I am profoundly grateful and will be coming here for all my future car needs.
Miguel is friendly, listens to your needs, responds quickly to your inquiries. There is no hard selling that often occurs at dealerships. I liked that I could take the car in the night before and leave the key.
These guys are the absolute nicest. I've always been treated with respect, and they have been absolutely incredible about keeping me posted with thorough updates, confirmation of consent, and great responsiveness. They were able to find and fix issues with my car giving me an overheating warning and with my air conditioning failing to work. Worth it for their professionalism!
I've been coming to Gill for 6 years; he takes care of me all the time. I have no complaints. I love his business and service. Highly recommended him
Accurate Automotive always does a great job my vehicle. Friendly and organized staff. Never a hassle. Highly recommended!
Gil and crew always perform when asked. Timely and affordable service.
Wanted to give a shout-out to the fine guys at Accurate Auto. When I bought my Genesis I was concerned about finding a local mechanic I could trust with repairs and services. As a Korean vehicle it can be difficult to have serviced other than going to a dealer, we all know how that goes. They do a fine job, timely and affordable. Don't hesitate to use this company, they are excellent.
