Rear Brake Pad Replacement

Mopar Rear Brake Pad Replacement Service

Rear Brake Pad Replacement Service in Waterloo, IA

Your brake pads are components in your car, truck or SUV's disc braking system. When you apply the brake pedal, your brake fluid moves out from the master cylinder under the hood and down the brake lines to each wheel. A disc brake system has a metal pad that clamps down onto the brake disc to slow your vehicle down and stop you. Each time you use your brakes a tiny bit of the metal wears down from the friction of it clamping onto the metal disc to stop you. After some time your brake pads are too thin to stop you properly and you will need rear brake pads replacement.

Signs of Needing New Brake Pads

Fortunately, there are several signs that your vehicle will give you to alert you to the need for new rear brake pads. You may notice a high-pitched squealing noise when you apply your brakes. This is a wear sensor inside of brake pads to alert you they are wearing down and getting thin. You may see a brake light illuminated on your vehicle's dashboard or you may hear grinding noise when you apply the brakes. You may also notice that your vehicle pulls to one side when braking or your brake pedal may vibrate when you are holding it down at a stop.

When Should I Get Service?

As soon as you notice any of the signs that your brake pads need replacing you should make an appointment at a dealership. Your brakes will continue to wear down and eventually they will not be able to stop you, which could lead to a serious auto accident. If your car is pulling to one side, you may accidentally hit a car in a lane next to you. If you wait for brake pad replacement, it can lead to needing additional brake parts that are expensive repairs.
