Brake Services for Your 2018 Ford F-350 Super Duty

It's a good idea to have your 2018 Ford  F-350 Super Duty brakes serviced before a problem arises. You don't have to wait for something to go wrong. 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.

Symptoms of bad brakes include unusual sounds, vibration or pulsation in the pedal or steering wheel, a burnt smell coming from the tires, an illuminated brake dashboard light, or a sensation that things aren't like they used to be.

How often do 2018 Ford F-350 Super Duty brake pads need to be replaced? It depends largely on your driving style and terrain. The majority of brake pads last between 30,000 and 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. Your brake pad replacement timeline also depends on the type of brake pads you have installed on your F-350 Super Duty. Not all brake pads are created equally. Some materials last longer. Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers Ford F-350 Super Duty brake pad replacements, coupons on brake services, and a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty on brake pads.

Your Ford F-350 Super Duty 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. Don't wait if you're experiencing brake squeaks or a loss of braking power. 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, and the metal-to-metal grinding may compromise other healthy parts. We can help you steer clear of further brake damage. Get your 2018 Ford F-350 Super Duty brakes fixed at Firestone Complete Auto Care.
