Safe-T-Stop Brake testing beats finding out in an emergency

Emergencies are not the right time to be testing your brakes!

At Autocare Mount Gambier we have installed a state of the art Safe-T-Stop Brake testing system where Brakes are tested rather than checked.

This will give you peace of mind when driving on the roads and offers our clients an even higher standard of vehicle safety testing. Compromising your safety is not an option.

At Autocare Mount Gambier the test is used in conjunction with all routine maintenance and offers our clients peace of mind when driving in their vehicle.

Over time your vehicles handling and performance changes and needs adjusting through regular maintenance and inspection. So if your car rock 'n' roll's when you corner or is simply not stopping the way it used to - then a Safe-T-Stop test can soon have your braking back on track?

A clear printed report from the test will offer exact measurements on a number of criteria including:

  • brake performance at each wheel
  • front to rear and side to side brake balance
  • tyre drag – (indicative of any required maintenance)
  • suspension condition – essential to stopping and serving suddenly
  • total weight of vehicle, as well as corner, axle and tow ball weights

Your car's braking and suspension play a vital part in making sure that your car stops quickly and safely. Here at Autocare Mount Gambier in Mount Gambier we take your safety very seriously. This is why we have invested in a state of the art Safe-T-Stop testing machine and are an approved Safe-T-Stop Testing Centre.

What is a Safe-T-Stop test?

A Safe-T-Stop inspection provides a detailed and accurate check of your cars' braking and suspension systems that goes well beyond a basic check and road test to scientifically test your braking capacity and ensure maximum stopping performance.

Our Safe-T-Stop test lanes, measure and simulate a vehicle's brake performance in real-life conditions without having to drive the vehicle at all. A simple road test, no matter how good the technician, could never produce a report as accurate and comprehensive as a Safe-T-Stop inspection can.

Along with the peace of mind that comes from knowing that your car will stop straight and in the shortest possible distance in an emergency, having your braking and suspension system in peak operating condition save you money by minimising tyre drag and tyre wear which can increase fuel consumption.

A Safe-T-Stop check will provide a detailed and accurate printed report that will enable the qualified technicians at Autocare Mount Gambier to advise you on any critical adjustments or repairs to your suspension and brake systems that should be made.
