It's easy to book regular inspections online each year or if a sudden brake service is needed. Either way, our Ray Price Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram team is here to help!

Important Brake Parts

Every model utilizes various parts which come together to create a reassuring and reactive experience when you hit the brake pedal. Understanding what all these parts do and how they work together is what our technicians do best.

Two core parts are the brake pads and brake rotors. Typically, the pads will be replaced between 30,000 and 50,000 miles, while the rotors can often last up to 70,000 miles.

There's a large gap in these estimates, though. So, how can you be sure you're doing the replacements on time? It comes down to a few key variables such as your driving habits, the type of model you drive, and where it is you drive each day.

For driving habits, the harder you drive, the sooner you'll require brake pad or rotor swaps. Stressing the brakes by stopping quickly from high speeds will wear down the brakes and rotors. Towing will have the same effect, as the brakes are asked to stop tremendous amounts of weight.

Similarly, if you drive in heavy, bumper-to-bumper traffic each day, you may need to keep an eye on your pads and rotors. The constant braking required in heavy traffic can slowly wear the brakes down over time.

Signs Your Brakes Need Repair

There are some tell-tale signs which suggest you need to visit a brake shop. The first and most obvious is if your vehicle takes a much longer distance to come to a stop than it normally does.

You'll also want to keep an eye on the brake pedal itself. The pedal should always be responsive and firm. If you have to floor the pedal before your vehicle begins to decelerate, the brakes are likely worn down.

In certain instances, your car may pull to the right or left when decelerating if one brake pad or rotor is worn more heavily than another. Finally, if you brake and hear constant noises such as screeching or grinding, our brake shop can help you out!
