Brake System Repair and Service

What do my brakes do?

Primarily your brakes are used to stop your car or truck. They do this by wasting energy. When your brake pads press against your rotors or drums, the friction that occurs turns the kinetic energy from your vehicle into heat energy which is released into the air. There are some vehicle that use the engine itself to help with the braking process. This is primarily done in big trucks or vans where the engine can help with the load.

Different ways your brakes wear

The most common is your pads wear too thin and need to be replaced. If you don't replace them then the metal the pads are mounted to will make contact with the the rotor or drum. This metal on metal friction will provide great stopping force for a short period of time but will lead to accelerated wear on your drum and rotor which will lead to it needing to be replaced.
