Front Brake Pad Replacement Process
In disc brakes, the brake pads, calipers, and rotors are the system's main parts. A front brake pad replacement process consists of disassembling the parts, removing the old pads, and putting new brake pads on. However, replacing the brake pads requires removing the wheel, opening and repositioning the caliper, and retracting the pistons that push the brake pad onto the rotor. The new brake pad should be greased with some graphite-based grease to reduce squeaking. The caliper is then repositioned, and the assembly is put back together. New brake pads will ensure a safer driving experience.
Signs Of Brake Pad Problems
If your brakes are squealing like a banshee, then it is probably time to get them checked out. However, many brake pads make a ticking noise when the wheel turns or when the brake is pressed. Other signs could be that it takes longer to slow down, or perhaps the car pulls a certain way when you press the brake. Sometimes if your rotors are warped, your car will vibrate when you slow down. All of these signs are potential red flags that your vehicle needs brake service. If you are unsure and simply curious about your brakes' status, then do not hesitate to stop by Toyota Del Rio to inspect your brakes.
Do Not Neglect Your Brakes
Your brakes are essential to your safety. However, drivers often can be complacent when brake service is needed. Either they ignore the squealing or adapt to the worsening brakes. It is not worth the potential danger should you need your brakes to function correctly in an emergency. If you are experiencing any warning signs, make an appointment as soon as possible.
