Securing Dependable Brake Performance
Your vehicle's brakes are one of its most critical safety features, and maintaining them is essential for your safety and the safety of others on the road. At Carmine's Import Service in Kernersville, we specialize in professional brake repair services to keep your car stopping safely and efficiently. Whether you're hearing squealing, noticing reduced braking power, or experiencing a spongy brake pedal, our experienced technicians are here to diagnose and resolve the issue promptly.
Comprehensive Auto Brake Repair Services
We provide a full range of brake repair services to ensure your vehicle performs at its best. Our services include:
Anti-Lock Brake System
The Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) ensures your wheels keep rotating during braking, preventing skidding and providing better control. If your ABS light illuminates, visit Carmine's Import Service for a diagnosis and professional brake repair.
Brake Fluid Flushes
Brake fluid can absorb moisture from the air over time, diminishing brake effectiveness and becoming corrosive, potentially harming the system. Regular brake fluid flushes are vital to ensure fresh fluid usage in your vehicle. Consult our technicians to determine the right time for a brake fluid flush.
Brake Hoses
A brake hose carries pressurized brake fluid from the master cylinder to the brakes. A damaged hose can lead to delayed or weak braking, and a leak may result in brake failure. While the need for a replacement brake hose isn't common, any signs of cracking or wear should prompt immediate replacement.
Brake Pad & Shoe Replacement
Squealing brakes often indicate brake pad issues. When brake pads deteriorate completely, a harsh metal-on-metal grinding noise occurs during braking, indicating potential rotor or drum damage. Although experienced individuals may attempt home repairs, if you have brake concerns, it's best to consult an auto repair professional promptly in order to receive the highest quality auto break repair.
Caliper Replacement
The brake caliper houses brake pads and clamps around the rotor to apply pressure during braking. Caliper problems can cause uneven braking, leading to skidding during braking and loss of control in adverse weather conditions. Contact Carmine's Import Service in Kernersville at your earliest convenience for assistance.
Resurface Rotors
In a disc brake system, rotors attach to your vehicle's wheels. The friction with brake pads over time creates grooves and cracks. The process of resurfacing restores rotors to a "like-new" condition, reducing noise and wobbling.

Brake FAQs
Learn about some of the common questions you may have:
}] }Why are my brakes making a grinding noise?
Grinding noises often mean that your brake system is critically worn and requires immediate attention. This sound typically indicates that the brake pads have worn through.
Why are my brakes squeaking?
Squeaking brakes might be caused by something as minor as road debris or as urgent as worn-out pads. It's a sign to check your brakes before the condition worsens.
Why are my brakes vibrating?
Vibrations during braking usually point to uneven rotor surfaces. Our team at Carmine's Import Service can inspect and resurface your vehicle's rotors to eliminate this issue.
Why are my brakes making a burning smell?
A burning smell from your brakes suggests they're overheating. Stop driving and check if your parking brake is engaged. If smoke is visible, it could be due to a stuck caliper.
How do you repair a sticking brake caliper?
A sticking brake caliper can cause uneven braking, poor fuel efficiency, or even serious damage if ignored. The repair typically involves inspecting the caliper slides and pins for corrosion, cleaning or replacing them as needed, and ensuring proper lubrication. In some cases, the entire caliper may need to be rebuilt or replaced-especially if the piston is seized or the rubber boot is torn.
While some experienced DIYers might attempt this at home, brake system repairs are best left to trained professionals to ensure your safety. If your brakes feel off or you suspect a caliper issue, stop by Carmine's Import Service so our technicians can take a look and get you safely back on the road.

Nichol Perry, 02/21/2026
Before I called I was aggravated with the dealership I felt that after purchasing and always dealing with them regarding my vehicle until that day they were always wonderful. But on that day I had to bring my car 3 times for them to figure out why I was receiving this particular error on the dash. Once they were able to retrieve the meaning I was told that it was a steering sensor and I needed a new steering column in order to replace the sensor. So of course I told them to go ahead and fix it please. The Blessing part about this is that they could not get the steering column part because they stopped making it. I was so annoyed because they didn't even suggest to fix the sensor they didn't offer any resolution I was just sent on my way. Yes I did report this to Ford. I was completely confused because I looked up how to replace a sensor also adding steering column replacement. I was informed that unless there was something wrong with the steering column there's no reason to replace the steering column. So I dropped to my knees and prayed and asked my Heavenly Father for assistance. I looked up all kinds of auto repair shops. Praying for assistance and believe it or not as clear as day The Lord said Carmines. Honestly I kelp looking because I never heard of them and I was just so worried about my car and the cost. So I went ahead and called spoke with Macy. She told me to bring it in and they would take a look. When I did she asked me questions that made a lot of sense. Was the steering wheel locking up was it hard to turn legitimately making sense. All no answers. They re ran a diagnostic on my car. Yes it was the sensor no the column was fine. And if the column was damaged they would help me get it fixed. Macy was absolutely accommodating and really helpful at easing my anxiety. I Thank The Lord that I was lead to them for help. I will continue to come to them for my automobile repair needs.
