Anchorage, Alaska-based Johnson’s Tire Service (JTS) is once again participating in National Brake Safety Awareness Week.
JTS said it will be offering free brake inspections at all five JTS locations in Anchorage, Eagle River, Wasilla and Soldotna between Aug. 20 and 27.
“This is our second season of participating in National Brake Safety Awareness Week, we received great feedback from the community last year and this year we’ll be offering the service at all five of our locations,” said Vatau Alenepi, JTS general manager of retail operations. “As we make the transition from summer to fall it’s important to make sure our brake systems are ready for Alaska’s dangerous winter driving conditions. Plus, it’s a great way for local drivers to become a more aware about the importance of checking their brakes seasonally.”
