Brake Service

Brake repair for any car, not just the ones we sell

Squealing, grinding or a pedal that feels soft? Bring it to Copple Cars Plattsmouth. Our certified technicians inspect and repair brakes on any make or model, and you'll know the price before we start. Call (402) 296-2000 or just come by.

What we look at during a brake inspection

We check the pads and rotors, since those wear the fastest, plus the brake fluid and lines. If something needs fixing, we'll show you what we found and quote it before any work starts. If your brakes are fine, we'll say that too.

Bring the car in if:

     
  • It squeals, grinds or scrapes when you stop
  •  
  • The pedal feels soft or spongy
  •  
  • The car pulls to one side when you brake
  •  
  • The pedal or steering wheel shakes as you slow down
  •  
  • The brake warning light is on
  •  
  • Stopping takes longer than it used to

Some problems aren't easy to pin down. Our up-to-date diagnostic equipment helps with those. And while your car is here, it gets a complimentary multi-point inspection like every other car in our bays.

How brakes wear out, and what a brake job costs

Every time you stop, the pads press against the rotors and lose a little material. Stop-and-go traffic and heavy loads wear them faster. Brake fluid ages too, because it soaks up moisture over time.

Brakes usually give you a warning. On many pads, a built-in wear indicator squeals once the pads get thin. Grinding is more serious. It usually means metal is rubbing on metal, and that can ruin the rotors and make the repair bigger.

Cost depends on your vehicle and what needs work. Front or rear, pads only or pads and rotors, they're all priced differently, so we look first and quote second.

If you'd like a loaner, ask when you schedule service. It's complimentary with a scheduled appointment. Plenty of our customers drive in from Bellevue, Omaha, Council Bluffs and Nebraska City.
