As you take the shortcut from Walnut Creek to Antioch in your Mercedes-Benz and slow down on Ygnacio Valley Road and Kirker Pass Road, squealing and screeching brakes are not what you want to hear. You'll want to visit us in Walnut Creek for Mercedes-Benz brake service right away, but you may be wondering how you can go longer between brake repair visits. Mercedes-Benz of Walnut Creek is here to provide a few tips on prolonging the life of your luxury vehicle's brakes.
How Can I Prolong Brake Life in My Mercedes-Benz?
1. Gentle Braking Is Encouraged
The more aggressively Antioch Mercedes-Benz owners brake, the more strain their brake system is put under. Whether you're at a San Francisco stoplight or on the California Delta Highway around Antioch, always give yourself enough time to stop. Slamming on your brakes leads to more frequent brake repairs.
2. Avoid Driving with Excess Weight
The less weight you have in your Mercedes-Benz, the better. By shedding excess vehicle weight, Danville drivers will put their Mercedes-Benz brakes under less strain.
3. Avoid Speeding
If you're speeding and driving at highway speeds in excess of 80 mph, it requires more stopping power to slow your Mercedes-Benz. Braking from high speeds can cause more stress on the brake discs and brake pads. Gentle deceleration is beneficial to prolonging the life of your Mercedes-Benz brakes.
4. Schedule Regular Brake Maintenance for Your Mercedes-Benz in Walnut Creek
Regular brake maintenance is one of the best ways for Orinda Mercedes-Benz owners to prolong brake life. Service your Mercedes-Benz brakes in Walnut Creek with us at each recommended interval. We'll perform a brake component inspection and brake fluid exchange at your Service A/B visit. Our team will keep the brake discs of your Mercedes-Benz clean.
