When To Get Your Cadillac Escalade Brakes Checked

Getting your 2013 Escalade’s brakes checked before trouble starts is a good idea. There's no need to wait for a problem. We make it easy by providing free brake checks to all of our customers so that we can help stop problems before they start. You can ask for a free brake check at any time. Schedule one on its own or request a brake check during a regular service, like an oil change. If life has gotten in the way of everyday car care, keep the following brake information in mind.

Brake problems include unusual noises, vibration or pulsation in the pedal or steering wheel, a burning smell near your tires, an illuminated brake dashboard light, or a sensation that things aren't like they used to be. You know your Cadillac Escalade best. A free brake check can help keep your system performing well. Generally speaking, automakers like Cadillac suggest that at a minimum, front and rear brakes are disassembled and serviced at least once every 12,000 miles or 12 months. That includes checking the parking brake, too. Brake service and/or repair should be performed as necessary. Not sure if something’s wrong? Stop by your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a quick brake inspection. All of our 1,700+ locations offer free brake checks seven days a week. Our expert technicians are happy to examine your 2013 Cadillac Escalade brakes, brake pads, and other braking components. Preventative brake care can help keep you safe on the road.

Replacing Your Cadillac Escalade’s Brake Pads

How often should you change your 2013 Cadillac Escalade’s brake pads? It depends largely on your driving style and terrain. Brake pads often last 30,000 to 40,000 miles. Factors like frequent highway driving and smooth braking can help your brake pads last longer. Alternatively, riding the brakes and hauling heavy loads can shorten their useful life. How often you need to replace your brake pads also depends on what kind you have on your Escalade. Not all brake pads are created equally. Some materials last longer. Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers Cadillac Escalade brake pad replacements, coupons on brake services, and a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty on brake pads. Brake checks and brake pad replacements are pretty common for us, and we only use brake parts that meet or exceed Cadillac's standards.

Get Your Cadillac Escalade Brakes Fixed

Your Cadillac Escalade may be powered by a strong engine. One that’s strong enough to take you into high mileage territory. But if you can’t stop it, it’s as good as scrap metal. If you notice your brakes are squeaking or not working well, don’t wait! Safe driving and responsive brakes go hand in hand. Plus, ignoring your brake problems can result in more damage and higher brake repair bills. For example, rotors start to warp and become damaged when completely worn brake pads exceed their lifespan, and the metal-to-metal grinding may compromise other healthy parts. We can help prevent that damage from happening. Visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for the right brake repair for your 2013 Cadillac Escalade. Our brake repair services include brake pad/shoe removal and replacement, brake rotor/drum machining, brake fluid exchange/bleeding, and brake caliper and wheel cylinder installation.

Cadillac Escalade Brakes Questions

  • Why does my Escalade shake when I brake? Feeling shaking or vibrating in your Escalade as you brake might indicate a few different problems, including worn brake pads or rotors, loose suspension components, damaged brake calipers, or warped rotors. Book an appointment for a free brake inspection as soon as you notice a problem with your brakes.
  • What is the total number of brake pads on my Escalade? On most cars, each axle is equipped with four brake pads — two per front wheel and two per back wheel. The front wheels usually work harder to help stop your Escalade, so don’t be surprised if your front brake pads wear out faster than your rear brake pads.
  • How long should my Escalade brake pads last? Brake pads generally last between 30,000 and 40,000 miles. Your driving can affect how long your Escalade brake pads last, though. For example, mainly driving on highways and gradually braking can help increase the lifespan of your brake pads, and carrying hefty loads or riding your brakes can shorten it.
  • Does brake fluid leak when the car is off? Your Escalade brake system is a closed hydraulic system, which means that the brake fluid should not leak out of the system under normal circumstances. However, over time, the various components of the brake system can wear out or become damaged, which can cause brake fluid to leak out of the system.
