Trust Yourself

If your brakes don't feel quite right, don't brush it off. Any vibration, noise, or unusual pedal feel can be the result of worn or failing components. Schedule your brake service at Saratoga Ford immediately to ensure your brake system is in good working order.

Brake Pads and Rotors

The most commonly-replaced items on your braking system are the brake pads and rotors. These are the friction surfaces that are responsible for converting your forward momentum into heat as the slow you down. Brake pads are stationary and clamp onto the rotors which are spinning with the wheels. This clamping slows the wheel, bringing you to a stop. However doing so generates a great deal of heat and physical wear which, over time, take a toll on these parts. Having your brakes inspected regularly will let you know where your pads and rotors stand in regards to wear, so you can stay ahead of any potential trouble.
