Brake Calipers

Noticing that your car, truck, or SUV isn't braking like it used to? There could be a number of issues when it comes to your vehicle's stopping power. More than likely, the complications will be within your brake pads and calipers. Two vital components to a healthy and safe stopping distance.

The primary job of a brake caliper is to engage the brake pads, pushing them into the brake rotors. This process uses friction in order to make your vehicle stop. And where there is friction, there is heat. Over time, your brake pads will wear thin from this repetitive process, and in some cases, your calipers will also need repair or replacement.

The brake calipers of your car are controlled by brake fluid which engage a single piston that presses or clamps the brake pads when you compress your brake pedal. Signs that your brake calipers are going bad are usually easy to point out. Look for:

• Low brake pressure
• Leaking brake fluid in or around your engine compartment and wheels
• A sideways drift or pull when braking
• Grinding or whining noises
• Brake or ABS system warning lights on the dashboard
