How Often Do Your Mazda CX-5 Brakes Need Service

It's a good idea to have your 2017 Mazda  CX-5 brakes serviced before a problem arises. You don't have to wait for something to go wrong. That's one reason we offer complimentary brake checks so that we can help you stay one step ahead of serious problems. You can request a free brake check as a standalone service or in addition to work you're already having done on your Mazda, like a battery replacement. If you've been putting off regular car care, though, keep the following brake symptoms in mind.

Signs of brake problems include weird noises, a vibrating pedal or steering wheel, a burnt smell coming from the tires, a “lit” dashboard brake signal, or a sensation that things aren't like they used to be. You know your Mazda CX-5 better than anyone else. A free brake check can help keep your system performing well. Generally speaking, automakers like Mazda suggest that at a minimum, front and rear 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. Want to keep your brakes ready for anything? Stop at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for a quick inspection. Most of our locations are open seven days a week and in the evening for free brake checks. Our technicians will inspect your 2017 Mazda CX-5 brakes, brake fluid level, and more! Properly maintaining your brake system is so important.

Brake Pad Replacement for Your Mazda CX-5

When should you change the brake pads on your 2017 Mazda CX-5? It depends largely on your driving style and terrain. In general, brake pads last from 30,000 to 40,000 miles. If you drive mostly on the highway and tend to brake smoothly (as opposed to slamming on the brakes), your brake pads may 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 CX-5. Brake pads made of certain materials tend to outlast others. Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers Mazda CX-5 brake pad replacements, coupons on brake services, and a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty on brake pads. Brake checks and brake pad replacements are some of our most popular services. For your CX-5, we’ll use brake components that meet or exceed Mazda’s specs.

Brake Repair for Mazda CX-5

Your Mazda CX-5 may be powered by a strong engine. One that's ready to get you to 200,000 miles and beyond. 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 the metal-to-metal grinding may compromise other healthy parts. We can help you steer clear of further brake damage. Visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for the right brake repair for your 2017 Mazda CX-5. We offer a variety of brake services like pad/shoe replacement, brake rotor/drum machining, brake fluid exchange/bleeding, and brake caliper and wheel cylinder service.

Answers to Your CX-5 Brakes Questions

  • What can cause my CX-5 to shake when I apply the brakes? Feeling shaking or vibrating in your CX-5 as you brake might indicate a few different problems, including worn brake pads or rotors, loose suspension components, damaged brake calipers, or warped rotors. Book an appointment for a free brake inspection as soon as you notice a problem with your brakes.
  • How many brake pads does my CX-5 come with? On most cars, each axle is equipped with four brake pads — two per front wheel and two per back wheel. The front wheels usually work harder to help stop your CX-5, so don’t be surprised if your front brake pads wear out faster than your rear brake pads.
  • How long can I expect my CX-5 brake pads to last? You can usually get around 30,000 to 40,000 miles out of your brake pads, but how and where you drive your CX-5 can affect this. Hauling large loads or riding your brakes can shorten their lifespan, while smoothly braking and mostly sticking to highways can help your brake pads last longer.
  • Should my CX-5 be leaking brake fluid when the car is off? Your CX-5 has a closed hydraulic brake system, meaning you should not have a brake fluid leak under normal conditions. However, parts of your brake system can wear out over time or become damaged, which can lead to a brake fluid leak.
  • Where can I go for CX-5 brake repair near me? When you need your CX-5 brakes serviced, you can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care. Schedule an appointment for a free brake inspection at a nearby location and visit us soon. Or, we might be able to come to you for brake service with our Firestone Direct mobile mechanics.
