Ford Brake Pad Replacement Service

Complete Brake Service for Ford Vehicles in Baton Rouge, LA

Stop in for our complimentary multi-point inspections at Hollingsworth Richards Ford in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and we’ll check your braking system to see if your brake pads need replacement. If you suspect an issue, our certified technicians will inspect your front and rear brake pads, as well as your entire braking system. We’ll make sure your brake pads aren’t compromised so you can rest assured that your brakes will slow your Ford when you depress the brake pedal. Regardless of the composition of your brake pads (such as composite, ceramic or metallic materials), they are worn down slightly each time they are used. This causes them to wear thin over time and with normal use. Once worn, they won’t be able to generate friction and heat effectively, causing their performance to falter, thereby increasing the distance required for your Ford car, truck, or SUV to stop.

What Is a Brake Pad Replacement and How Often Should It Be Done?

Brake pad replacement involves the process of exchanging your worn out brake pads for new ones. Typically brake pads should be replaced approximately every 30,000 to 70,000 miles, depending on the factors listed below. To get a more definitive estimate, bring your Ford to Hollingsworth Richards Ford and our certified technicians can let you know.

How quickly your brake pads and brake parts wear out depends on many factors, including:

  • Composition and durability of your brake pads
  • Your driving habits, such as if you stop abruptly or tend to coast
  • Your environment, such as whether you drive more in the city or the country
  • Condition of your suspension system

What Are the Benefits of Having Your Brake Pads Replaced?

Having your brake pads replaced has many benefits in addition to the most obvious benefit of ensuring your brakes work as they should:

  • Increased safety
  • Smoother braking
  • Improved reliability of entire brake system
  • Reduced operating costs
  • Quiet ride
  • Extended brake life
  • Protection of rotors and drums

What Could Happen If I Put Off Having My Brake Pads Replaced?

Our certified technicians strongly encourage having your brake pads replaced as part of your preventative maintenance. If you wait to replace them for weeks or even months after warning signs arise, your brakes will not function properly. Loss of performance and jumpy braking are safety hazards, often accompanied by a squealing noise.
