What can cause my Silverado 1500 LD to shake when I apply the brakes?

Your Silverado 1500 LD could shake when you brake due to worn brake pads or rotors, warped rotors, loose or worn suspension components, or faulty brake calipers. You can always schedule a free brake inspection at the first sign of strange brake behavior.

How many brake pads does my Silverado 1500 LD come with?

The brake system on most vehicles consists of four brake pads per axle, with two brake pads installed on each front wheel and two on each rear wheel. The front wheels of your Silverado 1500 LD put in more work when stopping your vehicle, so the front brake pads are likely to wear out quicker than the rear brake pads.

How long should my Silverado 1500 LD brake pads last?

You can usually get around 30,000 to 40,000 miles out of your brake pads, but how and where you drive your Silverado 1500 LD can affect this. Hauling large loads or riding your brakes can shorten their lifespan, while smoothly braking and mostly sticking to highways can help your brake pads last longer.

Can brake fluid leak when my Silverado 1500 LD is off?

Your Silverado 1500 LD has a closed hydraulic brake system, meaning you should not have a brake fluid leak under normal conditions. However, parts of your brake system can wear out over time or become damaged, which can lead to a brake fluid leak.

Brake Pad Replacement for Your Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LD

When should you change the brake pads on your 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LD? It depends on you and your driving style. The majority of brake pads last between 30,000 and 40,000 miles. Certain factors, like driving mostly on highways and braking smoothly, 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 Silverado 1500 LD. Not all brake pads are created equally. Some materials last longer.

Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LD Brake Repair

Your Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LD may be powered by a strong engine. One that's ready to get you to 200,000 miles and beyond. But if you can’t brake, it might as well be scrap metal.
