Brake Repair Services in Aurora

Given that a vehicle's brakes are one of the most crucial safety components, ensuring the safety of our customers is our top priority. Whether your brake pads indicate the need for replacement, your brake light is on, or you feel uneasy about your vehicle's deceleration, reach out to us at 630-264-2277 or visit our Aurora location. We're dedicated to promptly diagnosing the safety and reliability of your braking system.



Comprehensive Brake Repair Services

We provide a full range of brake repair services to ensure your vehicle performs at its best. Our services include:

Anti-Lock Brake System
The Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) ensures your wheels keep rotating during braking, preventing skidding and providing better control. If your ABS light illuminates, visit Marty's Automotive for a diagnosis and professional repair.

Brake Fluid Flushes
Brake fluid can absorb moisture from the air over time, diminishing brake effectiveness and becoming corrosive, potentially harming the system. Regular brake fluid flushes are vital to ensure fresh fluid usage in your vehicle. Consult our technicians at Marty's Automotive to determine the right time for a brake fluid flush.

Brake Hoses
A brake hose carries pressurized brake fluid from the master cylinder to the brakes. A damaged hose can lead to delayed or weak braking, and a leak may result in brake failure. While the need for a replacement brake hose isn't common, any signs of cracking or wear should prompt immediate replacement.

Brake Pad & Shoe Replacement
Squealing brakes often indicate brake pad issues. When brake pads deteriorate completely, a harsh metal-on-metal grinding noise occurs during braking, indicating potential rotor or drum damage. Although experienced individuals may attempt home repairs, if you have brake concerns, it's best to consult an auto repair professional promptly.

Caliper Replacement
The brake caliper houses brake pads and clamps around the rotor to apply pressure during braking. Caliper problems can cause uneven braking, leading to skidding during braking and loss of control in adverse weather conditions. Contact Marty's Automotive in Aurora at your earliest convenience for assistance.

Resurface Rotors
In a disc brake system, rotors attach to your vehicle's wheels. The friction with brake pads over time creates grooves and cracks. The process of resurfacing restores rotors to a "like-new" condition, reducing noise and wobbling. At Marty's Automotive, we inspect your rotors thoroughly and recommend the best course of action.

FAQs About Brakes


Why are my brakes squeaking?

Squeaking from your brakes can be caused by a variety of factors, including debris like stones caught in the caliper, or it may indicate that the brake pads are wearing thin.

Why are my brakes making a grinding noise?

A grinding noise from your brakes often means urgent maintenance is needed. This sound can indicate that the brake pads have worn down completely, causing metal-to-metal contact that can damage your rotors.

Why are my brakes vibrating?

Vibration during braking is commonly due to uneven rotor surfaces. Misshapen rotors can cause the car to shake when the brakes are applied. Resurfacing or replacing the rotors at Marty's Automotive can correct this issue and restore smooth braking.

Why are my brakes making a burning smell?

A burning smell from your brakes could indicate they are overheating. If you notice this along with smoke from the wheels, it's important to pull over safely and check if the brakes have cooled. Continuous driving could lead to further damage.

What are the 3 signs that brake pads are worn?

Common indicators that it's time to replace your brake pads include hearing squeaking or grinding noises and seeing the brake warning light on your dashboard.

Complete brake job (front and rear), oil change and filter, and minor refit of a wheel liner. Basically, completed in 4 hours' time. After nearly twenty years, the same degree of professionalism as day one! They always take my budget into consideration for the work I can't do on my own. And Mary puts up with me! Just remember that it's a two-seater waiting room so unless you're getting wipers or an early morning oil change, arrange for someone to pick you up. Not that Mary isn't good company!

What an amazing example of customer service. My son’s car broke down on Sunday night in Aurora. Not knowing what to do, I called Marty’s to leave a message saying I was going to tow my car to his lot and leave the key in it and hopefully they could look at it in the morning. To my surprise, Luis answered. As he was working Sunday night. He saved me a tow by grabbing a battery and running it over to me putting it in my car and driving it to his garage. The next morning he investigated what was wrong, which turned out to be a broken belt, idler arm and pulley. He with my permission, went ahead and repaired it. The car was available for me Monday afternoon and it runs like brand new can’t say enough about their service.

Brought my 02 SS Monte Carlo in cause my exhaust system dropped. And they rebuilt the whole thing within a day. Other shops told me would take 5 days to EVEN look at it but Mary at Marty's said bring it in when you can. These guys are no joke especially with older cars. Price was fair too to fix also and wasn't heart dropping like at Firestone. Thank you Mary And thank you guys at Marty's. Very very happy customer.
