Brake Repair
Does your truck shudder, squeal, or need extra runway before it stops? Quality brake repair performed on time keeps you, your cargo, and everyone around you safe while saving you from costly downtime.
Truck Brake Repair in Grand Rapids, MI
Pressurized air, heat, and heavy loads push every brake component to its limits. That’s why our technicians begin each truck brake repair with a full system evaluation. We inspect and replace air lines that show chafing, verify chamber push-rod travel, and measure lining thickness against spec. Wheel ends come apart so we can examine drums for heat-checking and swap worn brake shoes before rivets score metal. If your anti-lock brake system (ABS) throws a fault, we scan codes and run dynamic tests to pinpoint sensors or modulators. Precise brake adjustment restores balanced stopping power, and we finish with a 20-PSI leak-down test to prove system integrity. When parts are beyond limits, we recommend preventive brake replacement using OEM or Parts Plus-backed components, so you roll out confident in every stop.

Why Are My Brakes Failing On My Semi-Truck?
Air systems need clean, dry, high-pressure air to create force at the drums. Moisture, leaky diaphragms, or worn Brake shoes drop pressure, trigger dash warnings, and lengthen stopping distance. Ignoring the signs lets heat crack drums and glaze linings, eventually causing sudden loss of braking power.
How Do You Check Brakes On A Semi-Truck?
Technicians chock wheels, drain reservoirs to test compressor recovery, and measure push-rod stroke with a ruler. They remove inspection plugs to view lining wear and feel for cracked drums. Finally, they perform a timed leak-down and ABS self-check to confirm the entire system is road-ready.
