The Problem With Most Brake Jobs

Experiencing a spongy pedal, squealing noises, or steering wheel vibrations? Most shops will just throw a new set of pads and rotors on your car and send you on your way. But what if the problem comes back a month later?

Stop Throwing Parts At The Problem

If your brake pads are worn, but only on the inside pad, throwing new pads on won't fix the underlying issue. The new pads will just wear out unevenly again, meaning you'll be back in the shop paying for the exact same repair.

Our Approach: Fix It Right

We investigate further to understand why that pad wore out unevenly. We'll find out if the piston inside the caliper is sticking, or if the slide pins are seized. We diagnose the true root cause, fix it correctly, and stand behind our work. You don't pay unless we fix the problem.

Brakes

Front Brake Pads, Rotors & Calipers

Action Required — Replace

Uneven pad wear on the driver side and heavy rust across the assembly. Suspect the driver-side caliper piston is sticking (2mm inner pad left vs. 5mm on the passenger side). Recommend replacing front calipers, pads, and rotors as a matched set.

Electrical & Starting

12V Battery & Stored Fault Codes

12.2V — Marginal (Monitor)

Reads 12.2V at rest (~50% charge). Multiple fault codes stored for low voltage, fuel trims, and temperature sensors. Recommend charging and load-testing the battery before clearing codes.

Resting Voltage: 12.2VAlternator Output: 14.3V (Pass)
Suspension & Steering

Front Upper & Lower Control Arms

Pass (Monitor)

Upper control arm bushings look a little tired; lower control arms and ball joints are tight. Typical Michigan rust in the area—safe for now, re-check at future oil changes.

Ball Joints: Tight (Pass)Upper Bushings: Minor Aging
Suspension & Steering

Steering Rack & Tie-Rod Ends

Pass

Inner and outer tie-rod ends are tight with no play. Steering rack boots are intact and dry.

Fluids & Underhood

Engine Oil, Coolant & Brake Fluid

Pass

Engine oil is clean and full; coolant tested to -35°F. Brake fluid flush is included with front caliper replacement.

Tires

Tire Condition & Tread Depth

Pass (7/32")

Even wear across all four tires at 7/32" tread depth. Tire pressures set to 35 PSI door-placard spec.

When a repair has sensible part choices, we build side-by-side options so you can compare quality aftermarket vs. factory OE parts (or upgrades when applicable) and choose what fits your plans for the truck.

Quoted Only After Inspection (GM Genuine / ACDelco OE Selected)

We don't give quotes over the phone—even for brakes. On this Sierra, uneven pad wear turned out to be a sticking caliper rather than worn pads alone. Once your vehicle is inspected on the lift, exact parts and labor options are texted to your phone for approval before any work begins.
