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 know your Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera best. Turn to our technicians to help keep your brakes at peak performance! Vehicle manufacturers like Oldsmobile generally recommend that at a minimum, front and rear brakes are removed and serviced at least once every 12 months or 12,000 miles.

Replacing Your Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera’s Brake Pads

How often do 1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera 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. Certain factors, like driving mostly on highways and braking smoothly, can help your brake pads 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 Cutlass Ciera. Some brake pad materials last longer than others. Thankfully, when you get Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera brake pad replacement at Firestone Complete Auto Care, you also get a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty. We do brake checks and brake pad replacements every day, and for your Cutlass Ciera, we’ll only use parts that meet or surpass Oldsmobile’s standards.

Get Your Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera Brakes Fixed

Your Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera may be powered by a strong engine. One that can outlast the 170,000-mile mark. But if you can't stop it, then it's scrap metal. If you’re experiencing squeaky brakes or a loss of braking power, don’t wait! Unresponsive brakes make it tough to give the road your best. Plus, ignoring your brake problems can result in more damage and higher brake repair bills. For instance, rotors may start to warp when you drive on worn brake pads, and this metal-to-metal friction shortens the life of otherwise healthy brake components. Our technicians work to prevent more brake damage. Visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for the right brake repair for your 1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera. Our brake repair services include brake pad/shoe replacement, rotor/drum resurfacing, brake fluid exchange, and wheel cylinder and brake caliper installation.

Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera Brakes Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why does my Cutlass Ciera shake when I brake? Faulty brake calipers, worn brake pads or rotors, loose or worn suspension parts, and warped rotors can cause your Cutlass Ciera 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 are on my Cutlass Ciera? 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 Cutlass Ciera 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 long should my Cutlass Ciera brake pads last? Brake pads generally last between 30,000 and 40,000 miles. Your driving can affect how long your Cutlass Ciera 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 Cutlass Ciera be leaking brake fluid when the car is off? Because your Cutlass Ciera 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.
