Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Van Brake Service

Quality Brake Service for Your Sprinter

There is a feeling about how your Sprinter handles, so you know when there is something wrong, especially when it comes to braking. When you have that clue, your first stop should be Premier Autos of Dallas to get the special Mercedez-Benz Sprinter Van Service, where our expert technicians will hear what you have to say about the problem, and they can inspect your brakes to arrive at a well-informed brake diagnosis. Once they know what's wrong, they will provide an estimate and discuss your options. Your Sprinter is equipped with conventional disc brakes with anti-lock braking systems (ABS), electronic stability programs (ESP), and some Sprinters will have optional features like Active Brake Assist. These systems work together to enhance safety and performance, so it is important to have them properly maintained.

Types of Brake Services Sprinter Vans Require

At Premier Autos of Dallas, our specialized Sprinter Van Services at our Service Center offers a detailed brake inspection to address all the components in the brake system:

• Disc Brakes: Our technicians will check over the components in the brake system to ensure that they are safe and functional.
• Anti-Lock Braking System: If your brake light is on that indicates a problem with the ABS, our technicians will inspect the ABS whether it is a computer, sensor issue or something else and they will take care of the problem.
• Electronic Stability Program: This is especially important in the Sprinter, as this program helps alleviate tipping, which may be prone to rollover.
• Active Brake Assist: This optional feature monitors the distance to vehicles ahead and can provide warnings and even initiate automatic braking to prevent or mitigate collisions.
• Adaptive Brake: This technology primes the braking system for a quicker response in critical situations and can also remove moisture from the brake discs on wet surfaces. 
• Emergency Brake: A drum-in-hat emergency brake system which is used for parking and emergency situations.
• Brake Pad Material: Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans use brake pads designed for optimal stopping power and longevity, often made from high-quality materials like ceramic.
• Brake Rotor: Brake rotors are engineered to work in conjunction with the brake pads, ensuring effective heat dissipation and reliable braking performance.
