Brakes
It doesn’t matter how fast you go, you have to be able to stop. And, you’ve got to stop safely.
That’s why at Ox-In-Flames, we offer a free brakes check to keep you safe and sound. Like everything in your vehicle, your brakes have minimum specifications. Our skilled technicians will take accurate measurements and advise on brake serviceability. The accuracy of our measurements guarantee you’ll be safe, whilst ensuring we maximise the service life to save you money.
How do I know if my brakes need servicing?
First – if you’re unsure whether your brakes need servicing, get in touch! The benefits of a service far outweigh missing out. Not only are you making sure your family are safe, but you’re also potentially saving yourself £100s in the future by eliminating the chance of a problem becoming serious.
Here are 4 other indicators that your brakes need checking:

You hear a squealing or grinding noise when you brake
While driving, your brakes lose stopping power gradually
Your vehicle pulls to one side.
