Chevrolet Suburban Brake Pads
The disc brake system in your Chevrolet Suburban does all the hard work of slowing or stopping your SUV. For you, it's easy. You press the sole of your foot against the brake pedal, and your wheels slow their rotations. Behind the scenes, there's a lot more to it.
Why Brake Pads are Essential
When you apply that brake pedal pressure, the master brake cylinder responds by sending hydraulic brake fluid to the brake calipers. The pressure builds up and forces the calipers to clamp down onto the brake rotors. That creates the resistance that slows your SUV down. The problem is that both the calipers and rotors are made of metal. If they make direct contact, they can both get damaged. The brake pads sitting at the end of the calipers cushion that contact and keeping all parts concerned in tip-top condition.
Eventually, though, even the best brake pads can wear down due to the extreme heat and pressure involved in the act of braking. That's when they need to be replaced.
How to Spot Brake Pad Issues
Signs of brake pad failure include:
- The brake pedal vibrates or bounces underfoot
- There are squealing or squeaking sounds from the brakes
- You need more time and distance to stop
- You notice a grinding noise when you brake
- It seems like you need press harder against the brake pedal to get your brakes to respond
