Rear Brake Pad Replacement Service in Latham, NY

When it comes to your safety while driving a car, nothing is more important than being able to stop. To that end, brake pads are a critical cog in your Volkswagen’s braking system. Manufactured from a flat piece of steel, on one side of the pad is thick friction material. When you depress the brake pedal, the brake pads are engaged, and the friction material makes contact with the brake disc. Given that the wheels on your Volkswagen move extremely quickly, it takes a tremendous amount of force and friction to bring a vehicle to a complete stop which causes your brake pads to wear with time.
