The brake pads are an important component of your vehicle’s braking system. It’s good to understand what your brake pads do. Brake pads stop your vehicle by compressing around the rotors of your wheels. This stops your wheels from rotating. Brake pads use the power of friction to slow down your rotors and your entire vehicle. Regular brake use will wear out your brake pads. This is what makes the Volkswagen brake pad replacement service necessary.
Don’t make the mistake of underestimating just how important your brake pads are. Your brake pads need to be in decent shape, or your entire braking system will suffer. This could mean that your vehicle won’t come to a stop as quickly as you expect it to when you apply your brakes. You need your brakes to respond quickly and reliably. Otherwise, you might be put at risk of getting in an accident. Slower brake response and accident risks aren’t the only negative consequence of driving a vehicle with bad brake pads. Another problem is that other brake system components like brake rotors and brake calipers won’t function as they should and could wear out prematurely.
It shouldn’t surprise you if your front brake pads need to be replaced before your rear brake pads. The need for front brake pad replacement is typically more frequent than for rear brake pad replacement. That’s because brake pads on your front wheels typically have to do more of the work in stopping your vehicle and so age more quickly.
It’s important that you know when your vehicle needs new OEM Volkswagen brake pads in Lake Park. You should know that as a general rule, brake pads last somewhere between 25,000 and 50,000 miles.
