OEM Kia Brake Pads

In order for your Kia vehicle to stop, you need your brakes to respond on demand. In a disc brake system, that requires parts like master brake cylinder to the brake calipers and brake rotors to all be in good working order. Your brake pads are essential as well.

What Brake Pads Do

When you apply pressure to the brake pedal, it sends fluid from the master brake cylinder to the calipers. The pressure of that fluid forces the calipers to clamp onto the rotors, producing the friction that slows your car or SUV down. If the calipers and rotors actually contact each other, though, they'll get damaged. That's because they're both made of metal. Your brake pads cushion that contact, taking the brunt of the heat and force.

When to Replace Your Brake Pads

Eventually even the highest quality brake pads can go bad due to that wear and tear. That's why you need to replace yours if you notice any of the following signs:

The good news is that you don't have to replace all of your brake pads at once. You do, however, want to make sure to replace the front or rear pads at the same time to ensure consistent wear and performance.
