Close Brake Pad Replacement in Beaumont, TX
To ensure you and your fellow drivers stay safe on the road, it’s important to make sure that your brakes are working properly. A core part of functioning brakes are their pads, which endure quite a bit of wear during your Beaumont travels. If you’ve been experiencing poor brake performance, our Service Department here at Classic Kia would be happy to perform a replacement!
Brake Pad Function
As you travel down I-10, your brakes provide the force you need to bring your Kia to a complete stop. When you press the brake pedal, brake fluid transmits pressure that forces the pads to come into contact with the rotors, creating friction that prevents your wheels from spinning. To endure the intense heat that comes about as a result of this friction, brake pads are usually made from organic materials like rubber, fiberglass, and resin. Alternatively, you can opt for ceramic or semi-metallic brake pads that provide enhanced stopping power for performance-oriented driving. While these materials are more durable than the organic variety, they do run the risk of damaging other parts of your brake system due to their rigidity.
Warning Signs
During your next trip to Port Neches Riverfront Park, be mindful of how the brakes of your Sorento, Soul, or K5 perform. The most noticeable sign that your brakes need to be inspected or fixed is if you experience a vibrating sensation or notice a screeching sound whenever you bring your Kia to a halt. This noise is caused by a metal indicator that comes into contact with the rotors once the pads have worn too thin. Additionally, if you notice reduced stopping power or have to use extra pressure to slow down, it may be time for a brake pad replacement. Our technicians recommend you swap out your brake pads every 50,000 miles, but this figure can vary depending on your driving habits or environment. If you have any questions about this timeline, you can fill out the Ask a Tech form on our website.
Replacement Process
When you schedule an appointment with our Service Department, we will make sure that your brakes are functioning the best they can for the journeys that lie ahead. First, we will drive the vehicle into our service bay and will place it on a lift to remove the tires. Once they are off, we will be able to give your brakes a close inspection. After this, we will remove your current brake pads and swap them out with high-quality replacements. We always test the vehicle’s performance to ensure that the service has been successful and that there are no other issues. Once the process is complete, you can rest assured that your future travels will be safe, smooth, and enjoyable!
