FRONT BRAKE PAD REPAIR

Front vs. Rear Brake Pads

If you know how brakes work, you know how important brake pads are to their function. Brake pads are responsible for creating friction with the rotor, which in turn slows the wheel and brings your car to a stop. However, your front brake pads take on more of the responsibility when it comes to the braking process, so they generally wear down faster. Plus, you need a different size brake pad for front and rear brakes.

When to Replace Your Rear Brake Pads

Every 50,000 miles or so—varying depending on the pad and manufacturer—you should have your brake pads inspected for wear. If you notice any noises when you break or feel like your car isn't coming to a stop quickly enough, that could also be a sign of bad brakes. Neglecting to change your brake pads isn't just dangerous, it can also cause your brake rotors to warp or break.
