Original MOPAR Brake Calipers Online
Your car, van, pickup, or SUV likely has a disc brake system that's responsible for slowing the rotation of the wheels. That disc brake system is composed of several parts that work together to generate the friction needed to stop your vehicle's momentum. The brake calipers are among the most important parts of the process.
How Brake Calipers Work
When you apply pressure to the brake pedal with the sole of your foot, the master brake cylinder sends hydraulic brake fluid to the brake calipers. The fluid pressure forces the calipers to close onto the brake rotors, which creates the resistance you need to slow or stop. Since the calipers and rotors would get damaged if they were to make direct contact with each other, the calipers have brake pads attached to cushion that contact.
How to Spot Failing Brake Calipers
Even the highest quality calipers can wind up going bad, though. If the pads and rotors don't do a good enough job of dispersing the heat, the caliper seals can decay and allow contaminants to amass and cause corrosion. Signs of failure include:
- Your brake pedal feels softer than usual underfoot
- Your vehicle pulls to one side when you brake
- You hear grinding or squealing sounds when you're braking
- Your brake warning dash light comes on
