What are the Causes Behind the Worn Brake Pad

The brakes are one of the most important components in your car as it plays a vital role in ensuring the safety of the occupants of the car. Moreover, breaks help in better handling of the car. The brake pad of your car creates the necessary friction which helps in stopping the car. However, due to the nature of their functioning, the brake pad can wear out with time. Go through the slide to know the causes behind the wearing out of the brake pads of your car.

  1. What are the Causes Behind the Worn Brake Pad

  2. The braking system relies on the brake pad of your car to create the necessary friction needed to slow down the car.

  3. The brake pads are positioned within the brake caliper, so when you put the step on the brake pedal to down your car, then it will create friction.

  4. The brake pads have the friction materials which will wear down eventually on both sides of the car and force you to replace the brake pads.

  5. The common causes behind the worn brake pads of your car are described in the below-defined points.

  6. Sticky caliper piston

  7. If you found that the debris or rust are covered over the one or more piston of your car, then it will make the brake caliper sticky.

  8. When the brake caliper of your car is sticky, then the piston unable to slide properly and cause problems in the brake pads.

  9. In this way, the brake pads of the car make uneven contact with the spinning rotors throughout the car and wear it.

  10. Dirty rotors

  11. The dirty rotors of your car are the possible causes of worn brake pads and will not only cause in the old rotor as well as in new rotors also.

  12. So, for preventing the worn brake pads, you need to clean the rotors with a formulated brake cleaners to remove the debris.

  13. For preventing the dirt or rust over the rotors, your mechanic can apply the anti-rust coating over the rotors.

  14. Variation in thickness disc

  15. The disc thickness of your car defined the mechanical term which is generally recognized when the rotors of the car have different levels of thickness.

  16. If you notice the variations in the thickness level of the rotor, then it will wear out the brake pads faster.

  17. When the brake pads come into contact with discs it will cause more flat spots in it and worn out brake pads will become uneven throughout the car.

  18. Misalignment

  19. When you install new brake pads in your car, if your mechanic aligns them improperly, then it will wear out the brake pads.

  20. So, you will notice the worn out brake pad problems in your car within the week or months of the new brake pad misalignment.

  21. Once you experience the braking issues in your car, then take your car to your mechanic for aligning the brake pads properly.
