When to Have Suzuki Vitara Brake Service

It’s best to get a brake check before your Suzuki Vitara shows signs of brake troubles. 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 can request a free brake inspection at any time or during another service, like a battery replacement. If you've been putting off regular car care, though, keep the following brake symptoms in mind.

Symptoms of bad brakes include unusual sounds, pulsation or vibration in the steering wheel or pedal, a burning smell near your tires, an illuminated brake dashboard light, or the feeling that something is "off." You know your Suzuki Vitara better than anyone else. A free brake check can help keep your system performing well. Vehicle manufacturers like Suzuki generally recommend that rear and front brakes are removed and serviced at least once every 12 months or 12,000 miles. 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. We offer free brake checks seven days a week. Our expert technicians are happy to examine your 2004 Suzuki Vitara brakes, brake pads, and other braking components. Properly maintaining your brake system is so important.

Brake Pad Replacement for Your Suzuki Vitara

How often do 2004 Suzuki Vitara brake pads need to be replaced? It largely depends on where and how you drive. 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. 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 Vitara. Brake pads made of certain materials tend to outlast others. Luckily, Firestone Complete Auto Care offers brake pad replacement for Suzuki Vitaras that comes with a limited Lifetime Parts Warranty. We do brake checks and brake pad replacements every day, and for your Vitara, we’ll only use parts that meet or surpass Suzuki’s standards.

Get Your Suzuki Vitara Brakes Fixed

Your Suzuki Vitara 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, it’s as good as scrap metal. If you’re experiencing squeaky brakes or a loss of braking power, don’t wait! Safe driving and responsive brakes go hand in hand. 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, shortening the life of healthy parts due to the metal on metal grinding that occurs. We can help you steer clear of further brake damage. Get your 2004 Suzuki Vitara brakes fixed at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We offer many affordable brake repairs like brake pad/shoe replacement, brake rotor/drum refinishing, brake fluid exchange, and brake caliper and wheel cylinder service.

Questions About Your Suzuki Vitara Brakes

  • What can cause my Vitara to shake when I apply the brakes? Your Vitara 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.
  • How many brake pads does my Vitara 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 Vitara, so don’t be surprised if your front brake pads wear out faster than your rear brake pads.
  • What is the average lifespan of Vitara brake pads? Brake pads generally last between 30,000 and 40,000 miles. Your driving can affect how long your Vitara 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 Vitara be leaking brake fluid when the car is off? Your Vitara 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.
