Brake Components Explained
​
Brake Pads
Brake pads wear over time due to friction. Most last between 25,000–65,000 miles, depending on how and where you drive.
Brake Discs
Brake discs usually last longer than pads but may need replacement if you experience shuddering or uneven braking.
Brake Calipers
Calipers are durable, but can fail due to wear or corrosion. If you feel vibrations or hear unusual sounds while braking, they might need inspection or replacement.

How Often Should Brakes Be Replaced?
​
-
Brake Pads: Every 25,000–65,000 miles (on average)
-
Brake Discs: Usually every 2nd pad change, or when worn
