Brake Test and Replacement in Sherwood Park, AB
When you’re venturing around Sherwood Park, you need to be able to count on your brakes to work properly. Undergoing routine inspections and taking your Nissan vehicle in for service if you detect any issues is key to driving safely. Read our guide about this critical process, and then come by Sherwood Nissan for service!
Testing the Brakes
By testing the brakes on your Nissan Kicks, Rogue, or Murano, you can feel confident that they will work when you encounter a red light or when the vehicle in front of you suddenly stops. The testing process is simple but thorough. Our technicians will remove the wheels to access the various components of the system. From there, they will perform a visual inspection. For example, the brake pads should be thick to ensure the rotors and calipers don’t grind against each other. Our team will also take a look at the brake fluid. Cracks or leaks in the brake lines can lead to issues. Finally, a test drive ensures that your brakes are working as they should be.
Repairing the Brakes
What happens if there is damage to your brakes or they aren’t working properly? Our mechanics get to work repairing the affected components. Worn down brake pads are one of the most common problems that arise. Fortunately, this is an easy fix for our experts. They’ll replace the old ones with a brand-new set. You may also need to flush and replace your brake fluid, as it can become degraded or contaminated over time. But if there’s a leak, our team may need to replace the faulty part to ensure there is no issue in the future. Our Service Department will provide you with a full diagnosis of any issues with your braking system and make the necessary repairs to get you on your way.
Maximizing the Lifespan of the Brakes
If you want to avoid a costly and premature replacement of your braking system, there are a few tips you can follow to prolong the lifespan of your Nissan’s brakes. To begin with, it’s important to evaluate your driving habits. Do you slam on your brakes often? This can cause more stress on various components and lead to greater levels of wear. Instead, try gently braking to bring your vehicle to a slow stop. Finally, make sure to follow the manufacturer’s recommended weight limits for cargo and towing, as heavier loads put more strain on your brakes. You can schedule a service appointment to get your brakes checked at our Service Center!

“ We bought our first Nissan Murano in 2009 and absolutely loved it. Then 1 year ago I was with my sister when she bought her Nissan Murano from Kevin Wark at Sherwood Nissan, and we both really appreciated Kevin's thoughtful, kind, patient, knowledgeable, and professional service, so when I was in the market for another vehicle this past January I immediately thought of reaching out to Kevin at Sherwood Nissan and am so glad I did. Kevin not only provided me with excellent service, but found me my new beautiful 2024 Nissan Murano, which I love. Thank you Kevin, and thank you to the service department at Sherwood Nissan, who always provide me with prompt excellent care whenever I need it. ”
“ Appointment was completed as scheduled No complaints. Service advisor very helpful ”
“ I just purchased a 2024 Nissan Rogue SV from this dealership. Ava Vaillancourt helped from the beginning till the car arrived at my door step. If you’re planning to purchase a vehicle, I highly recommend Ava to help you. She’s very knowledgeable, works so hard to find the vehicle you like within your budget. My credit score wasn’t good, however she made it possible. Thank you Ava Vaillancourt and Sherwood Nissan Team! Special mention to Elliot who delivered the vehicle, he’s an awesome young guy with great personality. ”

“ 1/5 - Very disappointing post-sale experience I purchased a used vehicle from this dealership and drove it home less than a day before serious issues appeared. Within the first 60–90 km after pickup, the vehicle showed clear drivability problems: it would not rev past approximately 4,000 RPM and the transmission did not shift properly. The following morning, the vehicle would not start at all. I immediately contacted the dealership and brought the vehicle back. To their credit, the service department did inspect the car and carried out repairs. The dealership confirmed that the vehicle required: -a new battery -starter repair/replacement -and that there were drivability concerns immediately after delivery. Because the vehicle became undriveable right away, I was left without transportation and had to rely on Uber to get to school while the situation was being addressed. Despite these issues occurring within the first day of ownership, management refused any form of goodwill adjustment. There was: -no price adjustment or partial refund -no complimentary short-term warranty -no acknowledgement of the inconvenience and downtime I was told that once the vehicle left the lot, all responsibility was mine, regardless of how soon the problems appeared. Communication from management was dismissive and unprofessional. The only alternative offered was to return the vehicle entirely in exchange for my down payment, after several days without transportation and additional stress. While the repairs themselves were completed, the way this situation was handled completely undermined my trust in the dealership. I would strongly advise future buyers to be extremely cautious and ensure all concerns are addressed before taking delivery. I do want to note that Hardeep was professional, respectful, and genuinely tried to help resolve the situation. Unfortunately, he is a salesperson and does not have decision-making authority. The final outcome was entirely driven by management. ”
“ I had some experience with their autogroup (Drive Edmonton) and bought a vehicle from another dealership , but with this one it was unsatisfied . I’ve never seen managers this unprofessional and rude to the customer before. ”
“ I'd drop a zero but it won't let me. These salesman are the worst. Tried to sneak In 9000 worth of extra fees on a new vehicle remotely. Wouldn't show me a breakdown of the price until I signed the contract. No way. Go anywhere else. ”
“ I was very impressed with my service advisor. They scheduled timely appointment, provided me with a quote, and the invoice was exactly what was quoted. My service advisor was professional and provides timely communication. My car came back cleaner than when it went in - extra clean. I was super impressed. I highly recommend Nissan and my service advisor to others. ”
