Kia Genuine Brake Service in Chatham, ON

You probably already know how important working brakes are to on-road safety, but what you might not have thought about is how much more crucial they are in winter. As we touched on in our Kia Winter Service Checklist, winter weather conditions make for slippery roads, meaning your Kia is working harder to stop short of accidents, adjust its speed, and maintain control when cornering. Over time, the increased wear and tear lessens the friction generated by your brake components and lengthens your stopping time, which can be the difference between getting into a collision and avoiding one. Keep reading as the service experts at Lally Kia touch on some key points about your Kia’s brake health!

Why Do Brake Pads Need to Be Replaced?

To ensure your brakes are capable of generating the friction they need to safely slow your wheel rotation, it’s important to replace your brake pads as recommended by your owner’s manual (usually at around 32,000-120,000 kms). You don’t want to wait until your brake pads are too worn out to function properly, so here are some warning signs that your brake pads need replacing soon:

Screeching, Grinding, or Squealing
Brake Pedal Touches the Floor
Vibrations
Brake Pads Appear Thin
