How often should I change my brakes?
Brake pads typically need replacement every 40,000 to 112,000 kilometres, but this varies based on driving habits and conditions. For example, city driving or aggressive braking can wear them out faster, while highway driving tends to extend their life.
Does my Ford truck need brakes that are different from those of my SUV?
Yes, Ford trucks may require heavier-duty brakes compared to SUVs due to the increased weight and towing capacity.
What does a break inspection include?
Our factory-trained technicians offer a comprehensive brake inspection, including:
Checking for even wear and measuring brake pad/shoe thickness
Ensuring brake lines and master and wheel cylinders aren’t leaking
Checking rotors for hot spots and run-outs
Inspecting callipers for wear, fluid leaks and movement
Checking anti-lock brake sensors
Testing hardware and making necessary adjustments
What is unique about Ford brakes?
Ford OEM brakes are designed to meet specific performance standards and come with warranty coverage, ensuring high quality and compatibility.
If my Ford brakes need to be replaced and I still have a warranty, are they covered?
