Kia Brake Pad Replacement Service

Importance of Brake Pad Replacement Service

The brake pads are an essential part of a vehicle’s braking system. When brake pads are not in good condition, this creates a situation where a vehicle’s braking response can be slower and less reliable. A slower braking response leads to safety hazards. Brake pads that are in poor condition can be damaging to the rotors and calipers. Having brake pads replaced promptly when needed is important for keeping brake parts in good mechanical condition. Brake pad condition can also impact a vehicle’s efficiency. If brake pads are faulty, it’s possible that they could cause friction with the rotors even when the brake pedal is not being applied. This slows a vehicle down and makes it so that the engine has to work harder.

Understanding Your Brake Pad Replacement Service Needs

Both the front brake pads and the rear brake pads of a vehicle need to be replaced periodically. Motorists should note that front brake pads are slightly different from rear brake pads. The front brake pads on most vehicle models are larger. Rear brake pads generally last longer than front brake pads because they experience less of the stress of braking. More weight is at the front of the vehicle due to the engine under the vehicle hood. The increased amount of weight at the front end of a vehicle puts more stress on front brake pads when the brakes are applied.
