can be tempting to think that your car’s brakes are performing fine and don’t needed
any other attention or care. To help prevent costly repairs in the future, though, some
simple checks should be performed on a regular basis to help make sure everything is
properly working.
Understanding brake technology
How brakes function is pretty common knowledge. Basically, the entire brake system
slows down your car by converting the vehicle’s kinetic energy (which is made by
moving) into heat energy. This is accomplished through the use of friction devices –
more commonly known as brake pads in this scenario. Why is this important to know?
Because more than just brake pads work to slow your vehicle down, which means more
than one part needs to be examined when your brakes are getting checked as part of

pads.
Why do brakes need to be included in Orlando
auto service?
In order to work properly and be effective, your car’s brakes should be examined and
maintained on a regular basis.
 Brake pads don’t have a specific timeline for when they need to be replaced.
Generally speaking, they can last
between 30,000 to 50,000 miles.
However, this isn’t a hard rule.
Many different factors can
influence whether or not they last
this long, such as how often the
car is driven, driving habits, and
more.
 One way to get peace of mind
about the condition of your car’s
brakes and make sure they’re
performing as they should is by getting them checked whenever you bring your
vehicle in for an oil change. This way, you know that along with routine auto
service, your vehicle is also getting the brake service in Orlando that it needs.

a sign that they brakes are going bad. Obviously, this can contribute to a
dangerous situation. If you ever have any doubt or questions, you can always
bring your in car in so that the brakes can get checked.
