How Long Do Brakes Typically Last?

Under average driving conditions, most brake pads will last between 30,000 and 35,000 miles. Cars that are driven long distances on highways can get more miles on their brakes: in some cases, up to 70,000 miles, but that’s not typical. Around Milledgeville, you’re likely to have a combination of city and highway driving. Brake service and brake pad and shoe replacement is a normal part of keeping your car, truck, or SUV running safely and efficiently.

What Types Of Brake Service Are There?

There are several types of brake service. First, regular brake maintenance or a “brake job,” involves removing worn brake pads and shoes and replacing them. Brake jobs are typically priced per-axle. You should be aware that drivers who put off routine brake maintenance can risk serious damage to their brakes, which is significantly more expensive than replacing brake pads

You could also need a brake system flush and brake line bleed. This service removes old, worn brake fluid and replaces it. It also removes undesirable air from brake lines, which can cause the “spongy” feeling that signals this type of brake service is needed.

Some auto safety information indicates that brake failure causes “only 5%” of car accidents every year. But brake problems play some part in up to 20% of accidents, the NHTSA (National Highway Transportation Safety Administration) reports. Keeping your brakes properly maintained and checking for any problems is part of responsible car ownership.

The most common sign you need to take your car in for brake repair or brake inspection is a “squealing” noise when you apply the brakes. This is actually an intentional feature of auto, truck, and SUV brakes called the brake “squealer.” Brake squealers are small metal parts that make a noise when your brake pads are wearing thin and need to be replaced.

In addition to the brake “squealer,” there are several other signs it’s time to take your vehicle in for brake service:

• Brake pedal feels spongy or hard to press: If the brake pedal feels spongy or is difficult to press, it could be a sign of a problem with the brake system, including air in brake lines.
• Brake warning light is on: The brake warning light could indicate a problem with the ABS braking system or other aspects of your braking system.
• Car pulls to one side when braking: If your car pulls to one side when braking, you could have unevenly worn brake pads, a sticking caliper, or other issues.
• Brake pedal feels low: If the brake pedal feels lower than normal, it could result from a leak in the brake lines, a faulty master cylinder, or other issues.
