Brakes for Breasts 2026: Give or Get Up to $40 on Brake Pads

From October 1 through October 31, 2026, a qualifying brake pad service at Beachview Auto Service can earn you up to a $40 rebate through TechNet's Brakes for Breasts promotion. With new pads on both axles, you choose what happens to the $40: donate $40, donate $20 and keep $20, or keep all $40 on a TechNet Professional Prepaid Mastercard. A one-axle job (front or rear only) earns $20, which you can donate or keep. Donations go to Brakes for Breasts and The Cleveland Clinic Breast Cancer Vaccine Research Fund. Both of our shops, in Morehead City and Cedar Point, are taking part.

Beachview is giving too: From October 1 through October 31, 2026, Beachview Auto Service will donate 10% of the value of all Carquest Premium Gold and Carquest Professional Platinum brake pads purchased and installed at our Morehead City and Cedar Point shops. That's on top of whatever you choose to do with your rebate.

If your brakes have been squealing, grinding, or feeling soft, October is a good month to get them looked at. You get safe brakes, and you can help put the brakes on breast cancer too.

Signs It's Time for New Brakes

Not sure if you need brakes? Watch for these common warning signs:

A high-pitched squeal or squeak when you stop
Grinding or scraping, which can mean the pads are worn down to metal
A brake pedal that feels soft, spongy, or sinks lower than usual
Shaking or pulsing in the steering wheel or pedal when you brake
The car pulling to one side when you stop
A brake warning light on your dash
Needing more distance to come to a stop

Feeling a shake when you stop? Our post on why your car shakes when you brake explains the usual causes. Salt air, sand, and stop-and-go beach traffic are hard on brakes here on the coast, so it pays to have them checked regularly. You can learn more about our brake services too.
