What Is Front Brake Pad Replacement?
In front brake pad replacement, the brakes on the front wheels are removed and replaced with new brake pads. The front and rear brake pads should be wearing at about the same rate however, at times the front brakes require more force to stop the vehicle. This makes the front pads wear faster and require replacement. Our skilled technicians can inspect the front brake pads' condition and thickness to determine if a replacement is required. They can also guide you on the type of brake pads most suited to your vehicle, driving conditions, and preferences.
Importance of Front Brake Pad Replacement Service
With brake pads, you want a balance of braking force between the front and rear wheels. A brake pad that has been worn out will not provide adequate friction for proper braking of the vehicle. Continuing to drive the car with worn-out brake pads compromises the safety of the vehicle. It can also put excessive stress on the vehicle's suspension and steering system, which might require expensive repair or replacement service.
The Service Interval for Front Brake Pad Replacement
The service interval for brake pad replacement is going to depend on several factors such as type of brake pads, type of vehicle, maintenance, usage, and more. Rather than relying on a service interval schedule, we recommend having a regular inspection of the brake pads from an authorized service center such as Thompson Toyota of Placerville that carries OEM Toyota brake pads. Our certified technicians are trained to perform inspection and replacement services for brake pads.
