At Petaluma Auto Works our family owned and operated business has been providing brake repair and inspections since 1988. Brakes have always been a crucial component of any car, truck or SUV. In the past decade however, they have become integrated with onboard safety systems such as brake assist and autonomous cruise control making them more complex and more susceptible to something going wrong.

The safest and most cost effective way to keep your braking system in top performing condition is to have regularly scheduled inspections performed at the manufacturer’s recommended intervals. At Petaluma Auto Works we make that easy to do.
