Mazda Front Brake Pad Replacement Service
As you are driving your vehicle and approaching to pass a parked car, the new teen driver in the car opens the door right in front of you. It is at this moment that your front brake pads need to step up and help prevent a collision. Front brake pads apply approximately 70% of the total stopping force for your vehicle. That makes your front brake pads pretty darn important for safety. Rest assured knowing that you will be able to stop in time because you just replaced your old brake pads at the South Bay Mazda service center.
Brake Pads Go Bad Incrementally
Brake Pads go bad incrementally over time and drivers are sometimes unaware that their vehicle’s stopping power has decreased significantly. Since brake pads go bad incrementally, you will also notice that your stopping power decreases incrementally. When the stopping power on your vehicle becomes compromised, it is a safety concern.
Warning Signs of Faulty Brake Pads:
- Your stopping power has decreased
- You have to press the brake pedal farther down to stop
- Pulse, shimmy, or shaking in the brake pedal as it is pressed
- You can hear a grinding or squealing noise when pressing the brake pedal
Inspections: the Proactive Maintenance Service
The certified technicians at South Bay Mazda know that the inspection part of the Brake Pad Service is just as important as replacing the old brake pads with new. Inspections are awesome because they catch minor problems before they become major problems accompanied by expensive repair costs or even safety threats. Every Brake Pad Service includes a comprehensive and thorough inspection of the entire brake system and all of its components to make sure that your Mazda sedan, hatchback, crossover, SUV, or sports car has good strong stopping power.
If you have driven past the recommended Brake Service maintenance interval, or if you have any of the warning signs that your brake pads’ performance has decreased, scheduling front brake service might be the most important thing that you do today. Don’t risk driving on old brake pads with poor stopping power when the stopping force of factory specifications is within reach. Schedule an appointment today at South Bay Mazda to have one of our Mazda certified technicians provide you with Front Brake Service. Every Front Brake Service includes brake pad replacement and comprehensive inspection of the entire brake system and its parts.
