🚗 Brake Maintenance Matters More Than You Think 🛑
Your brakes are the most important safety system on your vehicle, but the signs of wear aren’t always obvious.
Over time, brake pads can stop moving freely, causing uneven wear or preventing proper contact with the rotor. This can lead to reduced braking performance and costly repairs if left unchecked.
Some common brake wear patterns include:
✔️ Normal Wear – Even wear across both pads
⚠️ Tapered Wear – Pads wear at an angle due to sticking slides or guide pins
⚠️ Inner Pad Wear – Often caused by seized caliper guide pins
⚠️ Outer Pad Wear – Can result from a sticking caliper bracket or guide pins
🔧 To keep your vehicle stopping safely, we recommend having your brakes inspected every 12 months or 20,000 km.
Don’t wait until your brakes fail — regular maintenance saves money and keeps you safe on the road.
