How do I know I need a Brake Hose Replacement?
Hydraulic brake systems rely on solid brake lines and flexible brake hoses. Brake hoses are connected where there is movement that would damage solid brake lines. Typically this is at the front wheels and the rear of the vehicle, either in the middle or at each wheel. These flexible brake hoses hoses attach to brake calipers or wheel cylinders and the solid metal lines of your brake system.
When these fail or begin to fail you will typically have:
- Leaking Fluid
- Bulging, tearing or other signs of wear
- Squishy or mushing brake pedal
- Brakes not functioning
- Increased pedal travel
- Increased stopping distance
How much will it cost?
The typical cost for the testing, inspection, and replacement is between $80-$300 for parts and labor. This price range is averaged across all passenger vehicles. The actual cost depends on your specific make, model and year. Depending on your specific vehicle, this cost may be lower or higher. This cost estimate is for the specific repair listed and doesn’t include additional, related items that may require repair.
What is included:
- Inspection of brake hose or hoses
- Replacement of worn or damaged brake hoses
- Inspection of related brake components
- Up to a life time warranty against defects
Additional components requiring repair or replacement, may result in additional charges
