- Is your stopping distances increasing?
- Do you hear squealing or squeaking as you apply your brakes?
- Are you experiencing shaking or bumping as you brake?
- Pulling to one side when braking?
- Is there a burning smell or odor?
Whether your car's braking system is improperly functioning due to worn brake pads, rusted rotor, loss of brake fluid, or any of the varying issues that can lead to break wear, malfunctioning, or failure, our team of certified technicians at Kraken Auto & Collision has you covered.

Oil Change

Engine Diagnostic Service
The most important service you can do to protect your vehicle’s engine is routine periodic oil changes.
Oil coats the engine’s moving metal parts to prevent premature wear or extreme damage during combustion. It also absorbs heat to prevent warping and holds dirt/debris so that it doesn’t scar the smooth interior surfaces.
Time and miles driven ages motor oil, reducing its protective value. Over time, it can degrade so badly that it doesn’t protect properly, producing a new problem, sludge.
Sludge is a dark gooey substance that can suffocate your engine. It’s a recipe of old oil and dirt. It clogs the filter, reduces oil flow, and can even be seen lurking on exterior engine surfaces in severe cases.
