Brake Repair
When your heavy-duty truck's brakes are acting up, it's not just an inconvenience; it's a safety concern. At Pacific Truck & Tractor, your safety and the reliability of your vehicles are our top priorities. Let's dive into how we can keep your brakes in optimal condition.
What Are Common Issues With Air Brakes?
Air brakes are the lifeline of heavy-duty trucks, but issues can arise. Look out for these common problems:
- Air Leaks: If you hear a hissing sound or notice the compressor running excessively, you may have an air leak.
- Brake Fading: Reduced stopping power can indicate worn brake linings or overheated brakes.
- Brake Chatter: Vibration during braking can signal issues with brake drums, rotors, or linings.
- Slow Brake Response: Delayed braking can be a sign of air pressure problems or faulty valves.

We offer a range of brake repairs and services to ensure your braking system is in optimal condition. Here are some of the brake repairs we provide:
- Brake Drum Resurfacing: Over time, brake drums can become uneven, affecting brake performance. We specialize in resurfacing brake drums to restore their efficiency.
