Brakes

One of the most important things you can do as a car owner is ensuring the brake system is operating properly. The brake system is what allows you to come to a complete and safe stop at a moment's notice on the road. You press the brake pedal and rely all of the parts within the system to work together to get your Mercedes to stop. Any change in how your brakes are responding should be taken seriously so you can make replacements as soon as possible. There are several components you can be checking within the brake system to see if there are any visible signs of wear and tear. The brake rotors in your car should be free from warping or grooves on the surface. The brake pads should be more than 1/4 of an inch thick. When there are problems with your brakes, you might start to hear loud screeching noises on the road. You also might start to notice it taking a longer time to get your car to come to a stop. Your car could start to pull to the side of the road when you're braking or your brake pedal could experience vibrations. Make sure you get OEM replacements for your braking system when the time comes. We sell OEM brake parts for Mercedes models here on our site.
