Brakes are the one system you can't afford to get wrong. A fully loaded truck needs a brake system that works perfectly every time, and brake defects are among the most common reasons trucks are taken out of service at roadside inspections.
Polstar Truck Repairs services air brake systems, ABS and hydraulic brakes on commercial trucks and trailers. We inspect the entire system, from the compressor and air lines to the chambers, slack adjusters, drums, rotors and linings, so the problem is fixed at its source.
As an MTO authorized inspection station, we know what inspectors look for. We'll make sure your brakes are safe, properly adjusted and ready for the road.
Don't wait for a breakdown. Bring your truck in if you notice any of these:
A hissing sound, or air pressure that drops quickly when parked, means air is escaping somewhere in the system.
An ABS light means the anti-lock system has a fault and may not work when you need it.
If the truck pulls left or right when braking, one side is braking harder than the other.
Needing more distance to stop is often caused by worn linings or brakes that are out of adjustment.
Metal-on-metal grinding usually means the linings are worn through and the drums or rotors are being damaged.
If it takes longer than usual to build air pressure, the compressor or air dryer may need service.
We work on trucks from all over Ontario, plus long-haul trucks from across Canada and the US passing through the GTA. Bring your truck to our Mississauga shop for brake services.
Brakes should be checked as part of your daily circle check and inspected thoroughly at every preventive maintenance service. If you notice any change in how the truck stops, have it checked right away.
