Maintaining your Lexus's braking system is vital for safety and performance, and South County Lexus in Mission Viejo, CA, is here to ensure your brakes are in peak condition. Brakes undergo wear with each drive, so regular inspections and maintenance can help prevent issues before they impact your safety. If you've noticed any changes in your Lexus braking performance, our certified Lexus technicians are ready to provide expert care and service.

A common sign of brake trouble is an illuminated brake warning light. If your emergency brake isn't engaged but the brake light remains on, it's time to bring your Lexus in for a comprehensive brake inspection. Another warning sign is a soft brake pedal that goes lower than usual when pressed, indicating a potential issue with the hydraulic system or brake fluid levels. Our team will identify the problem and perform the necessary service to get your brakes back to optimal working order.

If your Lexus is taking longer to stop than it used to, don't wait to have it checked. Delayed stopping can result from worn-out brake pads or issues with the rotors, both of which impact your vehicle's safety and stopping ability. Additionally, unusual noises like squealing or grinding are clear indicators that something is wrong. Squealing typically signals that the brake pads are wearing thin while grinding may mean that the pads are worn down to the metal, which can damage the rotors if not addressed promptly.
