Brake Pad Replacement
Brake Pad Replacement Service at Performance GMC Cadillac
GMC and Cadillac vehicles are known far and wide for their cutting-edge safety features. But no matter how impressive the latest safety upgrades are, one classic safety feature is more important than just about any other: the brakes. Your GMC Terrain, Cadillac XT5, or GMC Acadia needs to have its brake pads replaced from time to time, and Performance GMC Cadillac in Lancaster, OH, is just the place to go! We invite you to learn more about brake pad replacement on this page; then, come to Performance GMC Cadillac near Canal Winchester, OH.
The Importance of Brake Pad Replacement
Brake pads are a vital part of the disc braking system in your vehicle. When you step on the brake pedal, the brake fluid causes the calipers to squeeze together. This then pushes the brake pads against the brake rotors, slowing your GMC or Cadillac down or bringing it to a stop. However, brake pads aren't built to last forever. The brake lining (which is what actually comes into contact with the brake rotors) is made of a softer material than the rotors; this prevents friction damage. However, it also means that the lining wears down faster. When the brake lining gets too thin, it's at risk of exposing the metal brake pad backing, damaging the brake system. Before this happens, you should have the brake pads replaced.
How To Make Brake Pads Last Longer
Brake pads don't always wear down at the same rate, so brake pad replacement is performed based on wear rather than on mileage. This also means that you can do things to extend your brake pads' lifespan. One of the best techniques is to gradually slow down to a stop rather than slamming on the brakes. It's also best to remove as much excess weight from your vehicle as possible. Of course, the brake pads you use also make a difference. At Performance GMC Cadillac near Baltimore, OH, we use genuine GM brake pads backed by a warranty and manufactured to exacting quality standards.
