Faulty brakes from Scarborough

faulty-brake-linesToday we were called out to do a car service in Scarborough on a Hyundai ! The lady owner  mentioned that it had been a long time since her last car service and that she was worried about her brakes so we first carried out our vehicle inspection checking over closely the Hyundai’s brakes and sure enough she had good reason to be worried when we pointed out her faulty brake lines and how if she hadn’t got the car service the she did there would have been a good chance that she would have needed roadside assistance in Scarborough for no brakes instead off just a car service in Scarborough ! Very lucky
