Learn More About Our Rear Brake Pad Replacement Service at Carr Chevrolet in Beaverton, OR

When it comes to safety and reliability, the brakes on your vehicle are among the most important systems. In our service department at Carr Chevrolet, you'll find some of the best factory-trained technicians in the business to take care of things like the replacement of your rear brake pads. Just like the front disc brakes on your ride, rear-wheel disc brakes also rely on pads that clamp onto a rotor to slow and stop the vehicle. When these pads get low on your GM vehicle, come see us to have them replaced with genuine OEM rear brake pads.

Why are the Rear Brake Pads on Your Vehicle so Important?

The rear brake pads on your Chevy or other GM model may not be responsible for as much of the stopping power as the front ones are, but they're still a key component of your safety. Over time, the rear brake pads will wear down and need to be replaced. If neglected, the brake pads can wear away completely resulting in the system trying to stop your vehicle by clamping the metal brake pad backing to the metal rotor. This could mean more expensive repairs of the rotors and calipers or even cause your brakes to fail completely.

How Often Should You have Your Vehicle's Rear Brake Pads Replaced?

Since the rear brake pads don't handle as much of the stopping work as the front pads, they won't have to be replaced as often. Different vehicles and driving habits will make a big difference in how long a set of rear brake pads last, so we suggest having them inspected during other basic maintenance like oil changes and tire rotation. If you hear a squeal from the wheels when pressing the brake, come in today for new brake pads.
