Front Disc Brake Repair | Woodbridge VA

The Basics Behind Front Disc Brake Repair Services at Michigan Auto and Tire

Disc Brakes are used in the braking systems of modern vehicles both at the front and rear of the vehicle. Front disk brake systems are fitted with brake pads, calipers, rotors, and hydraulics. The rotor is fixed onto the wheel hub in a disk brake system, and calipers are responsible for pressing the brake pads against the disk to slow down the spinning rotor speed and bring the vehicle to a complete stop. Since front disk brake systems transform kinetic energy into heat, the brake system includes ventilation spaces, holes, or valves to remove heat. Although the brake pads are already built to withstand heat, the pads as well as other disk brake components are often affected by excessive amounts of heat. It is known that brake systems which use disk brakes have a strong stopping power. However, as with all braking systems, the disc brakes can wear over time. For this purpose it is extremely necessary to maintain routine.

Why Should You Have Front Disc Brake Repair Services Performed at Michigan Auto and Tire ?

Since front brakes provide most of the stopping power for your car, they appear to wear out faster than rear brakes. There are a few signs to remember when determining whether or not to schedule a front disk brake repair service. Although squealing noise from the front brakes points to worn brake pads, grinding noise is a sure sign that your rotors need to be serviced. This can also be a sign of bad rotors if the brake pedal shakes while engaged.A vehicle that pulls to one side while braking suggests bad wear of the brake caliper or uneven wear of the brake pad which can result from uneven pressure distribution in the brake lines. In addition to incurring additional repair costs, leaving untreated signs of an imminent front disk brake repair can lead to severe, stressful situations for both you and other drivers on the road.
