  • Brake Repair

    Brakes are one of the most important items to keep maintained on your vehicle. Brakes are not only responsible for your safety, but the overall well-being of your vehicle. If you let your brakes go unchecked for too long, it can lead to costly repairs. The brakes and suspension work hand-in-hand to ensure that you stop quickly and smoothly. If the suspension is off, it can make your ride not only bumpy and unpleasant, but also affect the braking distance in the event of a sudden stop. Having your suspension and brakes checked regularly can make all the difference in the way your vehicle feels and functions. HOW MUCH ARE BRAKES IN COLUMBUS, OHIO? CAN YOU GIVE ME AN ESTIMATE FOR BRAKES? We, at Buckeye Complete Auto Care, take pride in making all our repairs the correct repairs! Therefore, when we receive a call requesting, "How much are brakes?", we have discovered that it would be a disservice to our Customers/Potential Customers as it could result in an inaccurate estimate, often replacing the wrong parts. We always recommend bringing the vehicle in so we can inspect the entire system based on your symptoms. The inspection incorporates a myriad of items: Brake Pads, Brake Rotors, Brake Fluid, and any of the multiple Hydraulic Components. We have found that implementing this approach, not only, allows us to offer an accurate estimate but often saves the customer money and future issues by repairing the right component. For example: Even though you might think you only need brake pads. You might also have a Brake Line that is corroded and may give out while driving, thus losing all braking ability. You might not need Brake Pads; we have found on, countless cars, when there is a squeak, or when Brake Pads have been recommended by another Service Center, no problems were found in that area but a more pressing problem was discovered. Buckeye Complete Auto Care wants to be the place where you feel comfortable and confident in what you are buying!! BRAKE PADS IN COLUMBUS, OH Brakes should be checked at your 5K Service. However, if you hear any unusual noises, such as squeaking or squealing when you press your brakes, this could mean that the brake pads are worn down and the filament is exposed. Immediate replacement is necessary to avoid any more damage to the braking system. If delayed, worn brake pad usage can lead to deterioration of the rotors and costly repairs. It's imperative to have them fixed immediately, as soon as notice anything off or awry. BRAKE FLUID IN COLUMBUS, OH Brake fluid can be easily overlooked but it should be taken just as seriously as brake pads. If neglected, brake fluid can become acidic over time. It should be inspected during the yearly inspection fluid isn't contaminated from exposure and causing any unnecessary damage to your braking system. If you are unsure if your brakes need to be checked, stop on in or give us a call and we will be happy to discuss your vehicle's needs.

  • Tires

    The significance of tire maintenance is often overlooked. Tires a vital part of your vehicle as they are responsible for the effectiveness of steering, delivering power to the road while providing a buffer to all the potholes, cracks and bumps offered by the varying terrains; not to mention, channeling away water and cutting through snow and ice thus allowing you to travel safely in inclement weather. These critical roles of a tire can be compromised when not adhering to a regular maintenance plan; if tread has worn, tires will struggle to gain traction on any and all surfaces spelling disaster, if driving on over/under inflated tires, the vehicle will, not only, be unbalanced in how it is effectively able to traverse roadways (ie. pulling to the side, allowing too much or too little tread contact, etc...). Tire maintenance can easily be overlooked by the average car owner. Think about it. How often do we actually take the time to inspect our tire tread or air pressure coming or going? We are often in a hurry and it's not even on our radar. But, it should be. Having low tire pressure or worn tires can be potentially dangerous, as it can not only impair your driving performance and stopping capabilities, but it can also cause a blowout. Uneven tire pressure can cause tires to wear out quicker than they rightfully should. Worn tires could cause easily pop at any time, causing an accident. At Buckeye Complete Auto Care, we want to not only make sure that your car is safe but that you aren't spending money on repairs and replacements before the necessary time. If you are unsure if your tires are low or worn, feel free to stop in. It's always a good idea to have your tires rotated every 6-8,000 miles. When having them rotated at the respective intervals, one of our experienced technicians will examine them and let you know if anything seems awry.
