Brake Pad Replacement

Importance of Brake Pad Maintenance and Replacement

Your brake pads, which contact and apply friction to the brake rotors to slow your car down, are a critical component within your vehicle’s braking system. The friction causes them to wear down over time, so eventually they’ll need to be replaced for your safety. Typically this occurs between about 30,000 and 70,000 miles, but depends upon your driving habits, the environment in which you drive, the condition of your suspension, and the composition of your brake pads. If you suspect an issue with your brake pads, schedule an appointment at Feldman CDJR of Clarkston for replacement services.

Brake Pad Replacement Services Provided at Feldman CDJR of Clarkston

When you schedule an appointment at Feldman of Clarkston, our service experts conduct a detailed examination of your brake pads for wear and damage. If needed, we will replace your worn brake pads with new ones, which can be accomplished in pairs (front or rear). We offer the following replacement services:

• Front Brake Pad Replacement. The front brakes typically work harder due to greater pressure and weight to which the front is exposed. This causes them to wear down more quickly.
• Rear Brake Pad Replacement. The rear brake pads help share the load, but do not take the brunt of the stress. They won’t need to be replaced as often, but need to be checked frequently.
