How often should you change your 1984 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon’s brake pads? It largely depends on where and how you drive. In general, brake pads last from 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 E-150 Econoline Club Wagon. Brake pads made of certain materials tend to outlast others. Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon brake pad replacements, coupons on brake services, and a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty on brake pads.

Your Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon 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, then it's scrap metal. If you notice your brakes are squeaking or not working well, don’t wait! Unresponsive brakes make it tough to give the road your best. What's more, waiting for things to figure themselves out can result in more damage to your brakes and your wallet. For example, if you drive with completely worn out brake pads, your rotors might start to warp, and this metal-to-metal friction shortens the life of otherwise healthy brake components. Our technicians work to prevent more brake damage. Go to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for 1984 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon brake repairs.
