Should I replace all 4 rotors?

Dodge Challenger Rear Brake Pads & Rotor Replacement

Rear brake parts typically wear out well after the front brakes due to the level of stress required to slow a car. Some rear brakes can last up to 50,0000 - 80,000 miles, but you should consult your Dodge Challenger service manual for recommended maintenance intervals for all components. Keep in mind you should repeatedly have your service department perform a multipoint inspection which includes inspecting your brake system.

Dodge Challenger Brake Fluid

Where does brake fluid come into the equation? The brake fluid or hydraulic fluid is responsible for moving the components of your Dodge Challenger brake system. Brake fluid should be changed regularly. Consult your Dodge Challenger maintenance manual for facts on particular mileage intervals. Fresh brake fluid is something few people think about, even though it can seriously affect braking performance.For any brake related questions or concerns, reach out to our Dodge experts at Larry H. Miller Dodge RAM FIAT Tucson. You can even schedule your appointment online.

Brake Pads | Brake Rotors | Brake Calipers

The Dodge Challenger brake system is comprised of the following key components:

• Brake Calipers squeeze the brake pads up against your Dodge Challenger rotors to slow or stop your car.
• Anti-lock Braking System pump and a computer allows your car to keep traction on the road continuously.
• Brake Hoses transmit brake fluid from the brake line to your Dodge Challenger brake calipers. It's made of rubber and is flexible so that it can move with the suspension. These hoses need to be examined constantly for cracks and other symptoms of deterioration. Check your Dodge Challenger maintenance schedule for more data on when your hoses should be replaced.
• Rotors again called discs or drums are what your pads grip in order to stop the wheels from spinning. There are different types of brake rotors (Blank or "smooth" rotors, Cross-drilled rotors, slotted, drilled and slotted). Let find the best type of brake rotors for your Dodge Challenger
• Backing plate & return spring holds your Dodge Challenger braking system together so it can function accurately.
• Brake pads or shoes are the parts that physically make contact with your brake rotor and apply pressure or friction to slow and stop your wheels from turning. It's extremely vital to keep Dodge Challenger brake pads fresh by replacing them as they endure quite a bit of stress every time they are used. Check your Dodge Challenger maintenance schedule for the recommended mileage intervals.
• Master cylinder or hydraulic cylinder converts the pressure you put on your Dodge Challenger brake pedals to power the rest of your brake system by feeding brake fluid into the brake circuit.
• Heat Shield or dust shield helps impede grime buildup thereby extending the life of your brake system.
• Parking Brake cable or adjuster is a steel cable used to initiate the parking brakes. When the lever is used or pedal depressed, the cable pulls the calipers or drums to initiate the parking brake of your Dodge Challenger.

Brake pads consist of two layers: a metal backing plate and a high-friction material that includes rubber, fiber, carbon & other materials. Over time, brake pads wear down and can even start squeaking. This noise is the metal backing plate & the rotor touching, which again acts as a safety measure to let you know your brakes need repair. This can again cause damage to your rotors and, in some cases, can even start distorting them. In addition to serving as a "platform" for the friction material, the backing plate again protects the brake caliper from disproportionate heat buildup.

Brake calipers cover the rotors and contain pistons. The amount of pistons depends on the type of brake system. Brake fluid from the master cylinder forces these pistons to maneuver the brake pads against the disc. The brake caliper will uniformly distribute pressure against the brake disc. Generally, the more pistons in a caliper, the more uniformly the pressure from the pads is spread onto the brake disc.
