How often do 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser brake pads need to be replaced? It depends largely on your driving style and terrain. In general, brake pads last from 30,000 to 40,000 miles. Factors like frequent highway driving and smooth braking can help your brake pads last longer. Hauling heavy loads and riding your brakes can shorten brake pad lifespan. Your brake pad replacement interval also depends on what kind of brake pads you have on your Cutlass Cruiser right now. Are you still driving with the same pads as when you bought the car?

Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers brake pad replacement for Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruisers that comes with a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty.
