What is Brake Pad Replacement?

Brake pad replacement is a service that is designed to take old and worn down brake pads outside of your vehicle and replace them with new ones. Fortunately, there is a dealership out there that will always go above and beyond for your brake pad needs. Carousel Volkswagen in Iowa City, IA excels at front and rear brake pad replacements and will always ensure that our customers are satisfied. Let's take a closer look at some of the aspects of brake pad replacement and why you should work with our dealership.

Why Do I Need to Replace my Brake Pads?

The brake pads in your vehicle can become worn down with constant usage. The problem with this is that it can hinder your braking ability whenever you're on the road. This can decrease your stopping power whenever you need to come to a complete stop immediately when driving. Worn-down brake pads can also affect your vehicle's rotors if they become too thin, which can lead to expensive repairs in the future.

Are Front Brake Pads Different from Rear Brake Pads?

While both front brake pads and rear brake pads are essentially the same, the front brake pads work harder than the rear. This is because the front brake pads are used to help the vehicle come to a complete stop rather than the rear. The rear brake pads act as a support to help slow down the vehicle from the rear but do not take the brunt force of initial braking. This is why you may find yourself replacing front brake pads more than the rear.

How Often Do I Need to Get My Brake Pads Inspected and/or Replaced?

There is no definitive answer to this question as all brake pads can end up becoming more worn down than others due to road conditions and a person's driving. However, a standard answer would be to replace your brake pads between every 25,000 and 50,000 miles just for safety.
