When should you change the brake pads on your 1984 Dodge B350? It depends largely on your driving style and terrain. Brake pads often last 30,000 to 40,000 miles. Certain factors, like driving mostly on highways and braking smoothly, can help your brake pads last longer. If you often haul heavy loads or ride your brakes, your brake pads may wear out sooner. How often you need to replace your brake pads also depends on what kind you have on your B350. Some brake pad materials last longer than others. Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers brake pad replacement for Dodge B350s that comes with a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty. Brake checks and brake pad replacements are pretty common for us, and we only use brake parts that meet or exceed Dodge's standards.
