Ford ABS & Brake System Flush in Gastonia, NC

Automotive Braking & Antilock Brakes (ABS)

The Brake System on your Ford slows it down as needed to navigate the roads safely. The primary Brake System is relatively complex with several vital components working together to generate the stopping force between the brake pads and brake rotors. The Ford Brake System's mechanism of action is a clamp-like movement that relies on brake calipers positioned at each wheel location to squeeze against what would otherwise be freely rotating wheels. At the heart of generating friction and resistance between the brake pads and brake rotors is the brake fluid. Brake fluid is also necessary for the ABS to function properly.

ABS Brake Fluid

The Antilock Brake System (ABS) on your Ford car, minivan, light truck, or SUV enhances the brake system and vehicular safety by preventing the brakes from locking up while braking. The benefit of preventing brake lockup is maintaining traction against the road to increase resistance and stopping force necessary to slow down and stop. ABS has proven to be valuable for vehicles facing adverse driving conditions such as driving on slick roads. Since the entire brake system requires brake fluid to function correctly, scheduling an ABS & Brake System Flush Service at Tindol Ford is a convenient strategy to ensure that your Ford Brake System and ABS is at factory specifications and peak performance generating the stopping power you need for maximum passenger safety.

Flushing Brake Fluid?

Thorough Brake Fluid service includes flushing because it is the best way to ensure that every drop of contaminated Brake Fluid is removed. Brake Fluid is an excellent hydraulic because it is not compressible; however, brake fluid is known to absorb moisture that threatens its performance as a hydraulic liquid because the water can boil in the brake lines and the resulting vapor is compressible. When this happens, the brake fluid is defective and needs to be flushed to protect the brake system and its stopping power.
