Genuine Mopar Brake Calipers

Brake calipers are a crucial component of your car's braking system responsible for slowing down and stopping the vehicle's motion. They work in conjunction with other braking components to ensure safe and effective braking performance.

The Function of Brake Calipers in Your Car's Braking System

When you press the brake pedal, brake fluid is sent through the brake lines to the brake calipers. The calipers contain pistons that squeeze the brake pads against the brake rotor, generating friction. This friction slows down the rotation of the wheels, eventually bringing the vehicle to a complete stop.

Other Brake System Components

Brake calipers are just one part of the complex braking system. They work in tandem with several other components, including brake pads that hese attach to the calipers and are responsible for making contact with the brake rotors to generate friction. Brake rotors are mounted to the wheels and provide a smooth surface for the brake pads to grip, generating the necessary friction to slow down the vehicle. The brake lines are the carrier system of the brake fluid from the master cylinder to the calipers, enabling the braking process. A simple process that is used every time the car is driven.

Symptoms of Failing Brake Calipers

Over time, brake calipers may experience wear and tear, leading to potential issues. Some common symptoms of failing brake calipers include a spongy brake pedal or one that goes to the floor when compressed. Also, uneven braking, with one wheel slowing down faster than others, brake fluid leakage around the calipers and or excessive or uneven brake pad wear. If your experience grinding sounds while braking, you should seek an inspection ASAP and have your calipers replaced with Mopar parts.
