Your brake pads are the important parts that rub against the rotor (or disc) to slow and stop your car when driving in Loves Park. They eventually wear down.
When your pads are worn too much, they won’t stop your vehicle as well. When the friction material is worn away, metal parts of the pad are exposed and you’ll hear a squeal or grinding sound.
That’s when Loves Park drivers should replace their brake pads at Tuffy Rockford. Not only will new pads restore your stopping power, but replacing them on time will prevent damage to the rotor.
