About Kia Rear Brake Pad Replacement Service

An automobile’s braking system is very complex and made up of several different parts and your Kia is no different. Your rear brake pads are positioned by your brake discs and press into them when the brake pedal is pushed down, this resulting pressure brings your car to a stop. The pressure brake requires your brake pads to be replaced every so often. In general, brake pads should last between 30,000 and 70,000 miles however, driving habits and environment do have an effect on brake pad lifespan.

Why Does My Kia’s Brake Pads Need Replacing

Driving in Penfield causes a lot of stops be they carefully performed or sudden but no matter how you drive the act of stopping causes a great deal of friction which causes your rear brake pads to wear down. The brake pads are made of a softer material than the parts around them making this type of wear unavoidable however, by paying careful attention you can know when to replace your brake pads before they become a safety hazard.
