Brakes

The brakes are an important element of a vehicle, by making sure that you can stop the vehicle whenever you need to. The brakes work by using friction to change over the kinetic energy that your GM vehicle is creating as it moves into heat. This slows down the vehicle and makes sure you can stop in a safe distance. We use our brakes all the time and it is important that we feel secure that they will stop us when they need to. When the brakes aren't working properly it puts you and everyone around you in danger. Within your braking system you have many parts. The master cylinder, brake booster, drum brakes, disc brakes, emergency brakes, rotors and brake pads are all a part of your braking system. When it comes to servicing your brakes, you can refer to your GM owner's manual. Your vehicle is most likely equipped with an instrumental panel warning light which could also signal a potential brake problem. It is important when purchasing brake parts to purchase only OEM quality parts. These brake parts will work the best with your GM vehicle. Shop our webstore for all your brake parts.
