The braking system is your vehicle's number-one safety component. A braking specialist, HES Automobile checks, maintains and repairs the entire system, all brands, in its Meyrin workshop.
Braking noise, spongy pedal, longer stopping distance, warning light: these signals must never be ignored. We carry out a precise check and advise you honestly on what really needs replacing.
Our braking work
From wear check to full replacement, we work on every braking component, front and rear.
- Front and rear brake pads

- Calipers and hoses

When to change your brakes?
Pads wear according to your driving and journeys: city and mountain use the brakes more. A metallic grinding, vibrations or a sinking pedal are signs of wear. Brake fluid is generally replaced every two years as it absorbs moisture and loses effectiveness.

Frequently asked questions
My brakes squeal, is it urgent?
A squeal can mean worn pads. Better get it checked quickly to avoid damaging the discs, which are more costly to replace.
How often should brake fluid be changed?
Generally every two years. It absorbs moisture over time, which reduces braking effectiveness.
