The Lifespan of Your Brake Pads

In general, brake pads are going to last about 50,000 miles. This can decrease significantly if you brake heavily or often when you are driving. For vehicles that travel plenty of highway miles, brake pads tend to
last longer. Getting your tires rotated every six months can help prolong tire wear by decreasing uneven wear. Brake pads that are
less than 1/4 inch thick upon inspection will need to be replaced soon. If applying your brakes causes your brake pedal to vibrate, you need to get your brake pads checked.

Signs That You Need New Brake Pads

As brake pads start to wear down on your vehicle in Horsham, PA, you might start to hear a squealing noise when your brakes are applied. The noise may be sporadic and become consistent whether you are pressing the brakes or
not. If you start to hear a grinding noise, this means your rotors are being hit by the metal at the bottom of the brake pads. Schedule service immediately if you hear a grinding metal noise. You are going to risk further
damage to your brake system if you keep driving your vehicle with this problem.

New Brake Pads While You Wait

It will take about an hour or less to have new brake pads installed. We offer a waiting room with a flat-screen tv to watch, or you can get some work done at one of our workstations. We offer an
express service department if you have an emergency with your vehicle, and one of our technicians will be able to look over your brake pads to see what is going on. At Chapman Ford of Horsham, we are ready to
take care of your vehicle and make sure your brakes are safe for the road.
