• Squealing, scraping, or grinding during braking
• Pulsation or a soft brake pedal

• Pad-material measurement on all four corners
• Rotor-thickness and runout measurement
• Inspection of calipers, hoses, hardware, and brake fluid

Brake parts wear as a system, so replacing pads while overlooking worn rotors can shorten the life of the new parts. A technician should measure the rotors and inspect the surrounding hardware before recommending pads only or pads and rotors together. The final recommendation should reflect the vehicle’s actual condition.

• Measure rotor thickness
• Check rotor runout
• Inspect pads, calipers, hoses, and hardware together

Regular inspection can identify changes in pad material, rotor condition, hardware, calipers, hoses, and brake fluid. Drivers should also arrange an inspection sooner if braking symptoms appear. Larry H. Miller Volkswagen Tucson serves Tucson and surrounding Southern Arizona communities.
