When you have a question about any particular aspect of how a vehicle works or a problem you may be incurred, we are here to help you. One of the more important systems in a vehicle is the brakes. We are pleased to have put together the following information that we hope may be useful in helping our clients in the Gainesville and surrounding Alachua County area understand how brakes work.

Infiniti Anti-Lock Brake System

The ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) on a Infiniti serves the purpose of ensuring the wheels do not cease rotation when braking, thus preventing the Infiniti from skidding and providing optimal control. When the ABS light appears on the dashboard of your Infiniti, bring it to our brake shop in Gainesville and let a team member from Carrsmith Auto Repair inspect and diagnose the problem.

Infiniti Brake Fluid Flushes

The brake system in a Infiniti is no different than any other car, truck or SUV found driving around the Gainesville community. Over time, brake fluid will absorb atmospheric moisture (water) that will result in the brakes on your Infiniti being less effective, not to mention the fluid possibly becoming corrosive enough to result in possible damage to the entire braking system. Carrsmith Auto Repair recommends that all of our clients driving a Infiniti schedule a regular brake fluid flush to keep the system working as it was designed to operate.

Infiniti Brake Hoses

Brake hoses on a Infiniti are pressurized tubes that transport brake fluid to the brakes from the master cylinder. When damaged, a brake hose will result in a brake that is lagged or slow, and a leaking hose can result in a brake, or an entire braking system, failing. Although not needing replacement often, the brake hoses on a Infiniti should be replaced at our shop in Gainesville at the first sign of wear or cracking.

Infiniti Brake Pad & Shoe Replacement

Squealing brakes are a definite sign of a brake problem on a Infiniti. When completely deteriorated, the brake pads will result in a metal-on-metal grinding sound when stopping. This is an indication that the rotors or drums are being damaged. When this happens, bring your Infiniti brought to our auto repair shop in Carrsmith Auto Repair right for repair.

Infiniti Caliper Replacement

Brake calipers in a Infiniti serve to house the brake pads and fit like a clamp around the rotor, pressing the pads to the rotor upon braking. When experiencing a problem with a brake caliper, a Infiniti may slide forward due to braking that is uneven. This is a situation that could result in the Infiniti slidding out of control on the road when it is raining in Gainesville, so it is best to contact Carrsmith Auto Repair as quickly as possible.

Infiniti Resurface Rotors

In a Infiniti with a disc braking system, the rotors are affixed to the wheels of the vehicle. When gripping the rotor, brake pads bring both the wheels and rotors to a stop. But, this friction results in cracks and grooves appearing over a period of time. Having the rotor(s) resurfaced by Carrsmith Auto Repair can return them to a "like-new" condition that reduces wobbling and squealing. Carrsmith Auto Repair will inspect the rotors thoroughly and suggest the best course of action to be taken.
