What Is a Brake Pad Replacement?
As you commute in your Silverado 1500, starting and stopping is just a normal part of the driving process. Every time you stop or slow down when driving in Catonsville, your brakes put a great deal of heat and pressure on your brake pads, causing them to wear away over time. A brake pad replacement refers to taking your Chevrolet to a certified repair shop where they remove the old worn down brake pads and replace them with new ones.
Why Do Brake Pads Need Replacing?
Brake pads wear away because the surrounding components are made of harder materials than the brake pads. Old brake pads should never be ignored as they present a danger to your overall safety and the long-term health of your Chevrolet. A key safety issue with old brake pads is that they reduce brake responsiveness and can increase stopping distance. This can easily turn a sudden stop at a Woodlawn stoplight into an auto accident. Plus, old brake pads can cause stress to other parts of your Traverse's braking system leading to further repair needs.

How Front and Rear Brake Pads Differ
When researching brake parts for sale, one of the first things you'll notice is there are many different stores you can buy automotive parts from in and around Ellicott City. However, you can't just buy the first set of brake pads you see and install them on your Equinox. Front and rear brakes are different and not interchangeable. Two key differences between the two are the size and shape. When replacing your brake pads, you need the correct type for either the front or the back.
How Often Should Brake Pads Be Replaced?
Experts will advise a variety of mileage totals for brake pad replacement ranging from 25,000 to 60,000 miles, if not more. Such a broad number is because various factors can affect how long your Malibu's brake pads last. These factors can include regular driving on bad roads, encountering heavy traffic regularly, your own driving habits, and if you use your Chevy for towing or transport.
