What are Brake Pads Composed Of?

Brake pads are made of tough metallic substances and rub against your vehicle’s rotors to stop your car. They typically last a long time but will eventually need to be replaced. When the pads get bad enough, you won’t be able to stop your car. Worn pads can cause damage to your brake rotors, which is an even more expensive repair. In a worst-case scenario, if the rotor is damaged enough, your wheels could literally fall off as you go down the road. Major symptoms of needing new brake pads include taking longer to stop your car and squealing noises when you apply the brakes.

Front and Rear Brakes

Front brakes are larger, and that is the only real difference as far as the brake pads themselves. There is a lot of difference in what the front and back brakes do, so you are more likely to need front brake pad replacement before you need rear brake pad replacement. The front brakes take more of a load of stopping your car, so it makes sense they would wear out faster.

When to Replace Brake Pads

Brake pads last between 25,000 and 50,000 miles. Driving conditions and your driving habits have a lot to do with how long your brakes last, so it is hard to estimate the time between changes. If you have a yearly inspection, the wear can be measured, and that can give us a good idea as to when your brake system will need a Volkswagen brake pad replacement.
