How to Make Your Brakes Last Longer (Mechanic-Approved Tips)

Thumbnail

Brake systems wear out — but how you drive determines how fast.

Mechanic Tips to Extend Brake Life:

1. Coast more, brake less
Hard braking heats the pads and warps rotors.

2. Don’t ride your brakes downhill
Shift to a lower gear to reduce stress.

3. Don’t cheap out on brake parts
Low-end pads wear faster and damage rotors.

4. Replace brake fluid regularly
Old fluid causes brake fade and corrosion.

5. Fix alignment issues early
Misalignment puts uneven pressure on brakes.
