Air Brakes
Air brakes (or compressed air brake systems) stop heavy-duty trucks quickly. In this type of brakes, compressed air is used to apply pressure to the brake pad thus stopping a truck. These brakes are a powerful and effective alternative to hydraulic brakes - thus their common use in trucks, buses, and trains. Although powerful and effective, airbrakes need consistent, thorough maintenance. For all your airbrake needs, contact 434-227-5973 or visit Ace Auto Center Express today. At Ace Auto Center Express, we have qualified and experienced mechanics who will work on your truck's air brakes.
Brake Maintenance & Repair
Truck brakes are much more powerful than car brakes. Faulty truck brakes put the truck driver, the load, and other road users at risk. If you are not confident in your truck's ability to stop firm and straight when you hit the brakes, then it is time to have them checked and replaced if necessary. At Ace Auto Center Express, we will diagnose your truck and fleet's brake problems and offer high quality brake work. Visit our auto shop or call us today 434-227-5973.
Hydraulic Brakes
A hydraulic brake is a type of braking system that uses brake fluid to transfer pressure to the brake pads. Although most heavy trucks use air brakes, some trucks have hydraulic brakes. A hydraulic brake consists of the following: a brake pedal, a push rod, a cylinder chamber, and brake pads. With time, the hydraulic brakes components wear out and thus need replacement. For all your hydraulic brake system needs, visit Ace Auto Center Express or call us at 434-227-5973. We boast the most experienced hydraulic brake experts in the region.

What our clients are saying about us
We have established longterm and stable partnerships with various clients thanks to our excellence in solving their automotive needs!
I took my mazdaspeed 3 in for an alignment after installing coilovers and rear control arms. I was blown away by the hospitality of the guys that work there. Mark sent me text updates on the work being done all while answering any questions I had. It was nice to know my car was in good hands If they did engine and transmission work I would never take my car anywhere else.
Ace Auto of Charlottesville is professional and compassionate! Was out of town for a conference and car would not start before heading home 3 hours away. Called Ace Auto and John listened to my dilemma who then relayed it to Tony. Tony soon arrived and was able to get me and my co-worker back on the road in no time at all. He also suggested what to do since my battery is under warranty, and I'll be taking care of that in the morning. Tony even reached out to me this evening to make sure we got home alright. I cannot thank John and Tony enough for their help today, and thankful our paths crossed today!
