Why is my ML350 shaking as I brake?

Your ML350 could shake when you brake due to worn brake pads or rotors, warped rotors, loose or worn suspension components, or faulty brake calipers. You can always schedule a free brake inspection at the first sign of strange brake behavior.

What is the total number of brake pads on my ML350?

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 ML350 put in more work when stopping your vehicle, so the front brake pads are likely to wear out quicker than the rear brake pads.

How often do I need to replace my ML350 brake pads?

Brake pads generally last between 30,000 and 40,000 miles. Your driving can affect how long your ML350 brake pads last, though. For example, mainly driving on highways and gradually braking can help increase the lifespan of your brake pads, and carrying hefty loads or riding your brakes can shorten it.

Should my ML350 be leaking brake fluid when the car is off?

Your ML350 brake system is a closed hydraulic system, which means that the brake fluid should not leak out of the system under normal circumstances. However, over time, the various components of the brake system can wear out or become damaged, which can cause brake fluid to leak out of the system.

You know your Mercedes-Benz ML350 better than anyone else. Turn to our technicians to help keep your brakes at peak performance!

Mercedes-Benz ML350 Brake Pad Replacement

How often should you change your 2009 Mercedes-Benz ML350’s brake pads? It depends largely on your driving style and terrain. Brake pads often last 30,000 to 40,000 miles. Factors like frequent highway driving and smooth braking can help your brake pads last longer. If you often haul heavy loads or ride your brakes, your brake pads may wear out sooner. Your brake pad replacement timeline also depends on the type of brake pads you have installed on your ML350. Brake pads made of certain materials tend to outlast others. Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers brake pad replacement for Mercedes-Benz ML350s that comes with a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty. We do brake checks and brake pad replacements every day, and for your ML350, we’ll only use parts that meet or surpass Mercedes-Benz’s standards.

Brake Repair for Mercedes-Benz ML350

Your Mercedes-Benz ML350 engine may be strong and reliable. 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! Safe driving is difficult when your brakes are anything but their best. Plus, waiting can lead to more expensive parts wearing out and requiring replacement. 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 2009 Mercedes-Benz ML350 brake repairs. Our brake repair services include pad/shoe replacement, brake rotor/drum refinishing, brake fluid exchange, and wheel cylinder and brake caliper installation. Schedule a brake service and repair appointment for your Mercedes-Benz ML350.
