We’ve all been here: You start up your vehicle in the morning and begin to back out of the driveway.

Obviously, your brakes are pretty important. Your brake system is made of many components that all have to work correctly for your brakes to operate seamlessly. If one thing needs to be repaired, the whole system is compromised. Brake pads, rotors, hoses, calipers, and metal lines all play a part in stopping your car. At Woody's Automotive in Wichita, KS, we’re here to make sure your car, truck, or SUV stops as it should.

The axle is a structural component that bears the weight of the vehicle, any cargo, and the acceleration forces between you and the ground. It is so important to have your vehicle inspected regularly by a trained automotive repair professional here at Woody's Automotive to ensure its safety.
