Front Brake Pad Inspection

NOTICE
Wear indicator grooves are provided on each front brake pad to allow for a visual inspection without pad removal. Inspect pads by viewing from rear of caliper. Replace pads if worn to bottom of grooves.

  1. Viewing the front brake pads from the front of the calipers, locate the wear indicator grooves .
  2. Wear indicator grooves should be visible on both inboard and outboard brake pads.
    caution

    Front brake pads should always be replaced as a complete set. If it is determined that an individual brake pad has worn past the wear indicator groove, the front caliper should receive a new pad set. Failure to replace both front brake pads together may cause reduced braking performance or brake failure, resulting in a vehicle crash.
