Genuine Dodge parts are designed to last a long time in most cases. However, when something stops working as it should, several issues can arise that may require additional services and repairs.
Most drivers don’t know much about the brakes on their cars, but they are easily one of the most important parts to maintain regularly. Learn more about all of your car parts when you visit Fields Chrysler Jeep® Dodge RAM Asheville.
How Brakes Work
Cars move by harnessing something called kinetic energy. The way to stop that energy is by using friction, and that’s where your brakes come into play. Brakes use friction to burn away kinetic energy and slow down your vehicle.
However, it’s not as simple as it sounds. There are many different parts that have to work together, including the brake pedal, brake lines, hydraulic fluid, rotors, and brake pads. If any one of these parts isn't working, you could have problems bringing your car to a stop safely.
Getting Brake Service
Poorly functioning brakes can obviously cause an accident even if you’re careful. That’s why we recommend scheduling routine brake service including brake pad replacements and rotor replacements as needed. This ensures that everything is properly lubricated and ready to work when you press the brake pedal.
Some drivers may need brake service more than others, but you should at least have your brakes checked at least twice per year.
