How Often Do Brakes Need to Be Replaced?
How Often Do Brakes Need to Be Replaced? Pro Tip: Drum brakes are still a thing on some new vehicles, but since they’re usually in the rear, drum brakes don’t usually require as much service as front disc brakes.
A Short Course on Brakes
A Short Course on BrakesOn a disk brake, the fluid from the master cylinder is forced into a caliper where it presses against a piston. The piston, in-turn, squeezes two brake pads against the disk (rotor), which is attached to the wheel, forcing it to slow down or stop.
How Do Car Brakes Work?
How Do Car Brakes Work?Under pressure and expelled from the master cylinder, the brake fluid amplifies the force transmitted by your foot. Using this force, each brake caliper squeezes a pair of brake pads against a rotor, creating friction. Each wheel on your vehicle comes with its own brake and attached hydraulic device. All
