Anti-Lock Brakes

Repair Your Car’s Anti-Lock Brakes

An Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) is a newer technology on vehicles that helps to keep you safer by ensuring your brakes don’t lock up when you try to use them to slow your vehicle, preventing dangerous skids. Modern Anit-Lock Braking Systems also adjust the braking power between the front and rear wheels to improve overall stability and stopping power.

The ABS is made up of 4 main parts, a controller, a pump, valves, and wheel speed sensors. The wheel speed sensors are the most commonly damaged part that typically requires replacement.

Anti-Lock Braking Systems are complicated systems that include a computer controller. Damage to these systems can cost a lot more than a typical brake pad replacement. The damage could also be caused by a wide range of factors making it hard to estimate how long the average repair takes. The replacement should not take more than one business day. Without more information, the repair could cost anywhere from $300-$3000 because of how many variables could affect the repair process.

"I have been a customer of their's for 14 years. I started with their non-profit Carpenter's Garage then joined their membership program. Both programs are wonderful. I started out as a customer but now have a car repair family that I can count on and trust. I can always count on their help when the need arises."

"I have been using this shop for a year now, and the work is always done right. I use my car for my sole income, and when I found myself in a financial crisis with bad to no options, they worked with me to come up with a payment plan. There truly are good, honest people in this world, and I am most grateful."
