Toyota Brake Service 101

Why Do My Car's Brakes Need Service?

The brake system is designed to slow the momentum of your Toyota. Friction converts kinetic energy into thermal energy to help bring your Toyota to a halt. This cannot happen with failing brake components. Brake pads and rotors, in particular, are prone to significant wear and tear. Brake lines, brake calipers, and additional brake hardware need to be properly maintained, while braking fluid needs to be flushed regularly. All of these elements with brake service lead to a safe stopping experience.

How Often Should I Get My Car's Brakes Serviced?

Brake service has no specified mileage or time interval. Brake repair visits vary based on braking habits and the type of driving. Frequent city driving around Mishawaka and South Bend can cause brake pads and rotors to wear faster, as can braking with extreme force. Most Toyota models will require new brake pads and rotors every 50,000 miles. Annual brake maintenance for other brake hardware is recommended. A regular brake inspection at our Toyota Service Center in Mishawaka can determine if brake repairs are needed.

How Do I Know If My Toyota Needs Its Brakes Serviced?

A noticeable increase in stopping distance is the first sign that brake service is needed. Any grinding, screeching, or squealing noise heard while braking also indicates brake failure. As you attempt to exert force on the brake pedal, you may notice a spongy feel. A pulsing brake pedal and a vibrating steering wheel are additional alarm bells. Check to see if your Toyota is leaking brake fluid. Watch out for an ABS warning light or a brake light illuminating your Toyota's dash.

What Will Happen If My Toyota Doesn't Get Brake Maintenance?

Without brake maintenance, your Toyota will have trouble coming to a complete stop at intersections in Mishawaka. It may take longer to reach a standstill, as pressure point responsiveness continues to diminish without brake maintenance. This increases accident risk. Your Toyota is prone to pull to one side of the road while braking. Metal-on-metal grinding of the brake pads and brake rotors will occur if not replaced. This can lead to costly brake repairs. If your Toyota runs low on brake fluid, the brakes may fail.
