Brake Repair and Replacement in Crestview

Even though the brakes on your Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or RAM vehicle aren’t the most glamorous, they’re without a doubt one of the most important aspects of your drive. Unlike with some other car services—like tire rotations, battery replacement, or oil changes—there’s really no set recommendation for when to service or change your brakes. Replacing your brake pads is heavily dependent on how and where you drive and your specific vehicle, so the exact distance interval for when you should service your brakes or change your brake pads can change.

Generally speaking, the average lifespan of brake pads is around 50,000 miles. If you have a more demanding commute or you’re a more adventurous driver, you can probably expect your brake pads to wear out a bit quicker, somewhere around the 20,000 mile-marker. If you have an easier commute and you’re gentle on your brakes, your brake pads may even last well beyond 50,000 miles! The wear and tear on your brakes is honestly situational, but our trusted Service Department technicians can identify any issues and, if needed, can find the genuine Mopar brakes and brake accessories needed for your vehicle.

Why Does My Car Shake When I Brake?

The most likely cause of shaking is a warped or damaged rotor. Warping can be caused if the rotors are old, overheated, or if you tend to brake hard. You should have warped rotors fixed as soon as possible. Schedule service at Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram FIAT Crestview so our certified technicians can fix your brakes!
