  • If your brakes feel too hard or too spongy
  • If you can hear unusual noises when you press the brake pedal
  • If your steering wheel vibrates when slowing 
Make sure your vehicle stops right every time, and never compromise your safety. When you need new brakes, keep this list as a handy reminder of which parts to replace
Take a look at five parts that you should replace when you get new brakes
Brakes comprises of Brake Pads, Discs, , Calipers, Drums and Shoes.


Brake Pads: Brake Pads do a lot of work to stop your car and tend to need the most attention. You'll know it's time to replace the brake pads if you hear one of these noises:
  • Squealing : This noise is there for you. It's not fun to hear, but the pads are made to squeal when they are almost worn out. Some cars are equipped with brake pad sensors. When the pad wears down, the sensors touches the brake rotor, and that produces a squealing sound.
  • Squeaking: ​This sound indicates that your brake pads have experienced excessive wear and tear.
You might also notice on of these things happening while you're driving:
  • Pulling: If your vehicle pulls to the right or left while pressing the brake pedal, it might be time for new brake pads
  • Pulsating: If the brake pedal pulsates as you move, consider it a sign that the brake pads are worn, or that the brake rotor is warped. At this time you should consider brake pad and rotor replacement.
​
Brake Discs: Discs brake systems, which usually appear on the front two wheels of a vehicle and often the rear as well, use brake rotors to work properly. The rotor attaches directly to the wheel of the vehicle by way of a brake caliper. When brake pads apply enough pressure to the rotors, they slow or stop the vehicle. If you hear a grinding noise as you press the brake pedal, it could signal cracked or worn rotors.

Brake Calipers: Part of the disc brake system, the caliper holds the brake pad in place. The caliper contains hydraulic pistons which push the brake pad against the brake rotor, stopping the wheel.

Brake Drums: Many vehicle have drum brakes in the rear. The friction between the brake drums and the brake shoes also assist in slowing or stopping the vehicle. You'll need to change the drums when you do a full brake replacement . Don't forget to replace the hardware and wheel cylinders at the same time.

Brake Shoes: Brake shoes are integral parts of drum brakes. Since they work by transferring kinetic energy to thermal energy, brake shoes create tons of friction, can get incredibly hot, and wear down over time , because this friction is largely responsible for stopping your vehicle, making sure the brake shoes are in good shape by replacing them regularly is essential.
