When To Get Your Mercedes-Benz GLS350d Brakes Checked

It's a good idea to have your 2017 Mercedes-Benz  GLS350d 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 Mercedes-Benz, like a tire repair or an oil change. If you've been putting off regular car care, though, keep the following brake symptoms in mind.

Brake problems include unusual noises, pulsation or vibration in the steering wheel or pedal, a burnt smell coming from the tires, an illuminated brake dashboard light, or a sensation that things aren't like they used to be. You know your Mercedes-Benz GLS350d best. A free brake check can help keep your system performing well. In general, manufacturers like Mercedes-Benz advise that at a minimum, front and rear brakes are disassembled and serviced at least once every 12,000 miles or 12 months. That includes checking the parking brake, too. 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 Mercedes-Benz GLS350d brakes, brake fluid level, and more! Proper brake maintenance is key to preventing problems in the first place.

Mercedes-Benz GLS350d Brake Pad Replacement

How often should you change your 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS350d’s brake pads? It largely depends on where and how you drive. Brake pads often last 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. Alternatively, riding the brakes and hauling heavy loads can shorten their useful life. How often you need to replace your brake pads also depends on what kind you have on your GLS350d. Brake pads made of certain materials tend to outlast others. Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers Mercedes-Benz GLS350d 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 GLS350d, we’ll only use parts that meet or surpass Mercedes-Benz’s standards.

Mercedes-Benz GLS350d Brake Repair

You might have a strong and reliable engine in your Mercedes-Benz  GLS350d. One that's ready to get you to 200,000 miles and beyond. But if you can’t brake, it might as well be 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. Plus, ignoring your brake problems can result in more damage and higher brake repair bills. 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 prevent that damage from happening. Visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for the right brake repair for your 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS350d. We offer a variety of brake services like brake pad/shoe replacement, rotor/drum resurfacing, brake fluid exchange, and brake caliper and wheel cylinder service.

Mercedes-Benz GLS350d Brakes Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is causing my GLS350d to shake when I brake? Feeling shaking or vibrating in your GLS350d 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.
  • What is the total number of brake pads on my GLS350d? 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 GLS350d to a stop, the front brake pads usually wear out sooner than the rear ones.
  • How often do I need to replace my GLS350d brake pads? You can usually get around 30,000 to 40,000 miles out of your brake pads, but how and where you drive your GLS350d 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.
  • Is it bad if my GLS350d is leaking brake fluid when off? Your GLS350d brake system is a closed hydraulic system, so a brake fluid leak likely means you have an issue in your brake system. Over time, brake components can wear out or get damaged, causing a brake fluid leak.
  • Who fixes GLS350d brakes near me? Firestone Complete Auto Care has you covered with GLS350d brake inspections and repairs near you. Schedule an appointment for a complimentary brake inspection, and be sure to see us soon.
