Why Use Genuine Toyota Brake Pads?
  • Genuine Toyota brake pads are tested and approved for proper fit, form, and function. Toyota’s ceramic brake pads may help reduce heat, noise, and brake dust, as well as help extend rotor life. Our factory-trained technicians ensure proper installation of genuine Toyota parts and accessories, and installing genuine Toyota parts will extend the lifespan of your vehicle, maintain its value, prevent excessive wear and tear and safety issues, and maintain compliance with your vehicle warranty terms.
Signs You Need Brake Pad Replacement Services
  • Like all components of your Toyota, your brake pads will eventually wear out even with proper care and maintenance. Other components of your braking system will also experience general wear and tear and may need to be replaced eventually. Here are some of the warning signs that you need brake pad replacement services or brake system inspection and repair:
  • ● Visible wear and tear or damage to your car's brake pads.
  • ● A high-pitched screeching noise when you press the brake pedal.
  • ● A screeching noise or other alarming noises after replacing your brake pads.
  • ● Your car's stopping response is delayed or slower than usual.
  • ● You feel a vibration on the brake pedal when pressing the brakes.
  • ● Your brakes are very sensitive or not sensitive enough.
  • ● Your car is leaking fluid.
  • ● You hear a grinding sound when braking.
  • ● Your vehicle is pulling to one side when you brake.
What Are Your Brake Pads & What Do They Do?
  • Your Toyota's brake pads create friction that allows your car to stop when the pads are pressed against the brake disc, brake rotor, or brake drum. They are a crucial element of your car's braking system, requiring routine inspections and maintenance. A problem with your car's brake pads could affect your braking and stopping time and contribute to an accident or collision. Knowing how to recognize problems with your brake pads and braking system and when to replace braking system components can help reduce your risk of an accident.

How Often Do You Need Brake Service & Repair?

In general, you should schedule brake service and repair every 25,000-35,000 miles for newer model Toyotas. For used or older model Toyotas, you should schedule a brake inspection or brake testing every 10,000-15,000 miles. We also recommend scheduling brake testing if you plan on going on a road trip.

 
How often is replacement needed? It depends on the remaining thickness of your brake pads. Your brake pads wear down as you use your brakes. 4-6 millimeters of remaining brakepad thickness means that your brake pads are nearing replacement. Less than 4 millimeters means that they need to be replaced very soon.
