Ways to Increase the Average Life of Your Brakes

posted on
Your vehicle’s brakes are one of the most essential components for keeping you, your passengers, and other passengers and pedestrians safe. Routine maintenance and brake service will allow your brakes to last longer than the average number of miles a decent set of brakes lasts. A faulty braking system can pose serious hazards for you or someone else. Your brakes are constantly in use, and wear and damage are inevitable. Brakes will lose their efficacy after about 25,000 miles (40,000km). There's no way to make brakes last indefinitely, however, it’s possible to extend this lifespan by adapting your driving style to reduce the strain on your brakes.Brake Repair Service in Nutley, NJ
 

How to Keep Your Brakes Safe and Get Them to Last Longer

Don’t Brake at High Speeds
 
Braking suddenly at high speed is not only dangerous, but it puts tremendous wear on the brakes and causes them to fail. Regulating your speed and applying gentle pressure to the brakes when stopping, will ease the strain on your brakes, resulting in a smoother ride for you and your passengers. 
 
Keep Your Discs Clean
 
Rust can wear out your braking system prematurely. Keep the discs and rotors clean by taking your vehicle for regularly scheduled brake service. Brake inspection should be done every time you get tire rotation service. 
 
Change Your Brake Fluid
 
Change your brakes fluid based on your manufacturer’s recommendations for your vehicle. This is usually done once every four years. 
 
Braking Technique
 
When slowing down, it is best to come to a complete stop, instead of allowing the car to creep forward. Engaging the brakes for too long cause constant friction and wear your brakes out more quickly. Never drive with your park brakes on, or while accelerating and braking at the same time, not only will it wear your brakes out, but also your tires.
