- Grinding noises when braking
- Longer stopping distance than usual

BRAKE PAD INSPECTIONS
When should you schedule a brake pad inspection?
Brake pads create the friction needed to help slow and stop your vehicle. When you press the brake pedal, pressure moves through the brake system and allows the caliper to press the brake pads against the rotor. Over time, that friction naturally wears the pads down.
Brake pad life can vary based on driving habits, braking style, road conditions, and brake pad material. Many drivers may see brake pads last between 20,000 and 40,000 miles, but a professional inspection is the best way to understand their current condition.
Brake care tip
Smooth, steady braking can help reduce unnecessary wear, while sudden stops or riding the brakes for long periods may wear brake pads down faster.
