Are Your Brake Pads Okay?

In the brake system of a car, the brake pad is the most critical component, and the braking effect is mainly reflected through it.

But many novice drivers like to slam on the brakes without moving. I believe many people have experienced this experience: the road ahead is clear, no pedestrians pass by, and there is no road construction. Suddenly the car in front brakes, causing him to be caught off guard. Such bad driving habits of the driver in front of the vehicle will accelerate the wear of the brake pads.

So, how can the service life of brake pads be extended? The correct driving method is to concentrate on the six roads while driving, and prepare for possible problems in advance. If it is predicted that there may be a problem, it is necessary to collect the oil foot in advance to put the brakes on, and then decide whether to apply the brakes according to the road conditions. Good driving habits not only extend the life of the brake pads, but also reduce fuel consumption, while effectively reducing the incidence of traffic accidents.

How to judge the brake pads have been worn to the point where they need to be replaced? Some medium and high-end cars have brake warning lights. But when the warning light comes on, and you think of replacing the brake pads, the accident may have happened. Because the warning light is on, it means that the brake pads have worn to a critical point, and the stability during emergency braking cannot be guaranteed.

A senior person reminded that if you find that the braking force is not as good as before during the driving process, or if you need to step on the brakes to achieve the same braking force, this means that the car's brake system needs to be maintained and maintained.

Generally speaking, the replacement cycle of the front brake pads is 30,000 to 50,000 kilometers, and the replacement cycle of the rear brake pads is 60,000 kilometers, which does not include the excessive use of brake pads caused by the driver's bad driving habits. Because different car manufacturers have different maintenance cycles for different models, the specific brake pad replacement cycle should be based on the requirements of the car manufacturer.

Friendly reminder from Brother Bao, although the brake pads are small, they are the basis for safe driving. Take care of the brake pads and travel more worry-free. If you want to buy an Organic Brake Pad Set, please contact us Acura Brake Shoe Manufacturer.
