Brake Caliper and Hydraulic System Repair in Cagnes-sur-Mer
The brake caliper is the heart of the disc brake system. Its proper operation ensures even pressure of the pads on the disc and guarantees effective braking. A seized or leaking caliper leads to brake overheating, premature pad wear, and longer stopping distances. At Mario Garage (Cagnes-sur-Mer), we perform professional repair and servicing of brake calipers as well as full restoration of the hydraulic part of the braking system.
We work with both modern vehicles and classic models, using only original repair kits, seals, and gaskets. Our specialists guarantee that after repair, your brakes will operate safely and reliably under all conditions.
