How Long do Car Brakes Last?

Average brake pads need to be replaced anywhere from 25,000 to 80,000 miles. While each vehicle and driver is different, some brakes are able to surpass 70,000 miles. Drivers who drive a little more aggressively by riding their brakes or slamming on their brakes can cause them to wear down faster, leading to a replacement much sooner. Other factors can depend on colder weather conditions or if you live in city where you are constantly having to use your brakes to stop and go. While the environment can impact your brakes, so can the quality. That's why we recommend having your brakes replaced at Southworth Chevy GMC where we use OEM geuniune car parts at the best cost available.

When should I replace my brakes?

Your vehicle shaking or brakes sqealing are major indicators your vehicle needs new brakes. One of the biggest signs you need new brakes is when you hear squealing noises, chirping sounds or a grinding noise. If you have to press your foot completely to the floor board when using your brakes, it is another sign you need a replacement. Another dangerous sign includes if your car pulls to one side when you're driving. The brakes not working correctly can affect your steering rack and can cause your car to veer to left or right when using brakes.
