Brake Pad Installation

Brake pads are made of a friction material that is bonded to a steel backing plate. When you step on the brake, the pads are pressed against the steel brake rotor, which causes your vehicle to slow down and stop. Over time, your brake pads will wear down or need repair. The average lifespan of a brake pad ranges from 25,000 to 70,0000 miles, depending on the make, model, and way you drive your car. When you need new brake pads installed, you can count on Chandler & Sons Automotive to install them correctly, so you and your passengers are safe.
