What Causes Brakes to Fail?
Brakes are made up of several different parts, including calipers, cylinders, pads, and rotors. If any of these components start to break down, your brakes will not function properly. Brake damage and degradation can be caused by many things, including excessive use, leaking fluids, and stress from heavy cargo. It should be noted that even brakes that are well-maintained by the owner have a limited lifespan. This is why many automotive experts suggest that every vehicle owner go in to have their brakes inspected occasionally, just to be safe.
When Should I Take My Vehicle in for Brake Service?
Every make and model has different service and maintenance needs, and that reality extends to the brakes as well. Many automotive experts suggest going in for brake inspection every 15,000 kilometres, which is roughly a year of standard vehicle usage. Your vehicle’s owner’s manual will provide you with the most accurate maintenance schedule for your make and model, including information on brake service.
