When To Get Your Jeep Wrangler Brakes Checked

It’s best to get a brake check before your Jeep Wrangler shows signs of brake troubles. We offer free brake inspections as a benefit to all of our customers so that we can help prevent problems from starting in the first place. You can ask for a free brake check at any time. Schedule one on its own or request a brake check during a regular service, like a tire repair or an oil change. If life has gotten in the way of everyday car care, keep the following brake information in mind.

Brake problems include unusual noises, a vibrating pedal or steering wheel, a burning smell around the tires, an illuminated brake dashboard light, or the feeling that something is "off." You know your Jeep Wrangler like the back of your hand. And you don't have to wait for something to go wrong. Stay ahead of problems with a free brake check. Vehicle manufacturers like Jeep generally recommend that rear and front brakes are removed and serviced at least once every 12,000 miles or 12 months. That also includes checking the e-brake. Brake service and/or repair should be performed as necessary. Not sure if something’s wrong? Stop by your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a quick brake inspection. All of our 1,700+ locations offer free brake checks seven days a week. Our ASE Certified technicians will gladly inspect your  2005 Jeep Wrangler brakes. Preventative brake care can help keep you safe on the road.

Replacing Your Jeep Wrangler’s Brake Pads

When should you change the brake pads on your 2005 Jeep Wrangler? It depends on you and your driving style. 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 Wrangler. Some brake pad materials last longer than others. Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers brake pad replacement for Jeep Wranglers that comes with a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty. We do brake checks and brake pad replacements every day, and for your Wrangler, we’ll only use parts that meet or surpass Jeep’s standards.

Jeep Wrangler Brake Repair

Your Jeep Wrangler may be powered by a strong engine. One that’s strong enough to take you into high mileage territory. 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 and responsive brakes go hand in hand. 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. Go to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for 2005 Jeep Wrangler brake repairs. Our brake repair services include pad/shoe replacement, brake rotor/drum resurfacing, brake fluid exchange/bleeding, and brake caliper and wheel cylinder installation.

Jeep Wrangler Brakes Questions

  • What can cause my Wrangler to shake when I apply the brakes? Faulty brake calipers, worn brake pads or rotors, loose or worn suspension parts, and warped rotors can cause your Wrangler to shake during braking. If you’re experiencing odd brake behavior, schedule a free brake inspection at a nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • How many brake pads does my Wrangler 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 Wrangler put in more work when stopping your vehicle, so the front brake pads are likely to wear out quicker than the rear brake pads.
  • What is the average lifespan of Wrangler brake pads? Brake pads typically last about 30,000 to 40,000 miles. However, driving conditions can affect this range. Sticking to highway driving and braking smoothly can help extend the life of your brake pads, while towing heavy loads or frequently riding your brakes can shorten it.
  • Is it bad if my Wrangler is leaking brake fluid when off? Because your Wrangler brake system is a closed hydraulic system, it should not leak brake fluid. However, if components in your brake system have worn out or been damaged, it might cause brake fluid to leak.
