Brake Inspection in Kendal

Brake Inspection by The MOT Centre

Whether your brakes are “spongy”, noisy, or simply taking too long to bring you to a safe stop, choose First Stop for a comprehensive brake service and replacement in Kendal that will keep you safe on the road at all times.

During a brake replacement at The MOT Centre, our highly trained technicians use advanced diagnostic equipment to accurately assess and address any issues before installation, guaranteeing that your new brakes will be both responsive and reliable.

Even if you haven’t noticed any symptoms of underperforming brakes, remember that brake disks, drums, callipers, and pads are subject to continual wear and tear. Stay on top of preventative maintenance by scheduling brake servicing once a year or every 12,000 miles.

"Long story short: On holiday, got rear ended, insurance companies trying to work out if I could use the car or not, Tom at The MOT Centre had a look at my car and got it well and truly roadworthy so we could carry on with the holiday and sort insurance stuff out when we got back home. He literally dropped everything to fit us in. A proper holiday saving hero! Thank you."

"Great service and attention to detail. Took my Audi A3 for towbar and 13pin electrics to be installed. Also installed cruise control as wasn’t part of the original configuration. Plus replaced a brake disk back plate and some other rattly bits (don’t know what but they did) all very professionally and good value. They clearly know their way around VAG cars. Thank you."

"So my car was taken to these lads after RAC couldn’t fix the car there and then, the lads took a look at it and provided a good overview of the issue and due to the age of the car were unable to get parts, that being said they come across as honest and helpful and if I have any other issues I will be happy to use them again in the future, also due to their honesty I will be using them for future MoT’s!"
