Brake Pad Replacement Service

Why Do Brake Pads Need To Be Replaced?

One of the materials making contact with the other has to be of a softer material to prevent damage. The front and rear brake pads are comprised of metal backing and a softer friction material that’s designed to wear down slowly over time while being capable of standing up to heat. When the brake pad lining gets thin enough, it’s time to replace the pads so that your Mazda can continue to stop safely.

How Often Should I Replace the Brake Pads?

How long brake pads last depends on several factors, from the environment you’re driving in to the kind of braking you do. If you always come to hard, fast stops, your brake pads won’t last nearly as long as they would if you came to a gentle stop. While brake inspections are the best way to find out when you need new brake pads, the pads themselves will likely let you know, too. If you start to hear a squealing sound whenever you step on the brakes, it means that the wear indicators have been exposed. It’s your vehicle’s way of telling you that it’s time for a brake pad change. If you ignore this and hear a grinding noise, that means it’s too late; you’ll need not just a brake pad change, but also work done on the rest of the braking system.
