Replacing Your Dodge Ram 2500 Van’s Brake Pads

When should you change the brake pads on your 2000 Dodge Ram 2500 Van? 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. Hauling heavy loads and riding your brakes can shorten brake pad lifespan. Your brake pad replacement timeline also depends on the type of brake pads you have installed on your Ram 2500 Van. Some brake pad materials last longer than others. Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers Dodge Ram 2500 Van brake pad replacements, coupons on brake services, and a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty on brake pads. We do brake checks and brake pad replacements every day, and for your Ram 2500 Van, we’ll only use parts that meet or surpass Dodge’s standards.

Get Your Dodge Ram 2500 Van Brakes Fixed

Your Dodge Ram 2500 Van engine may be strong and reliable. One that can outlast the 170,000-mile mark. But if you can’t brake, it might as well be scrap metal. If you’re experiencing squeaky brakes or a loss of braking power, don’t wait! Safe driving is difficult when your brakes are anything but their best. What's more, waiting for things to figure themselves out can result in more damage to your brakes and your wallet. For example, rotors start to warp and become damaged when completely worn brake pads exceed their lifespan, shortening the life of healthy parts due to the metal on metal grinding that occurs. We can help prevent that damage from happening. Visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for the right brake repair for your 2000 Dodge Ram 2500 Van. Our brake repair services include brake pad/shoe replacement, brake rotor/drum machining, brake fluid exchange/bleeding, and brake caliper and wheel cylinder installation.

Questions About Your Dodge Ram 2500 Van Brakes

  • What can cause my Ram 2500 Van to shake when I apply the brakes? If your Ram 2500 Van shakes when you brake, you could be dealing with warped rotors, faulty brake calipers, worn brake pads or rotors, or loose or worn suspension parts. Schedule a free brake inspection at Firestone Complete Auto Care for help diagnosing your brake issue.
  • How many brake pads are on my Ram 2500 Van? It’s common for vehicles to have four brake pads per axle — two on each front wheel and two on each back wheel. Since the front wheels tend to put in more work when bringing your Ram 2500 Van to a stop, the front brake pads usually wear out sooner than the rear ones.
  • How long can I expect my Ram 2500 Van brake pads to last? Brake pads generally last between 30,000 and 40,000 miles. Your driving can affect how long your Ram 2500 Van 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 Ram 2500 Van 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.
  • Where can I go for Ram 2500 Van brake repair near me? Firestone Complete Auto Care has you covered with Ram 2500 Van brake inspections and repairs near you.
