Every Kia car, minivan, and SUV is manufactured with a brake system that relies on hydraulics to clamp the brake pads against rotors powerfully to create the resistance needed to stop. Every time that you press the brake pedal, the hydraulic brake system comes to life generating stopping power. Brake pads are purposefully designed to wear over time to prevent damage to the rotors. Since we know that brake pads wear over time and need replacement before they wear down entirely, it is an excellent maintenance decision to monitor the remaining pad life to ensure that your vehicle’s brake pads never wear down and cause problems with stopping power or damage the rotors.
As the pads wear down, there are warning signs that start showing up. A design feature of Kia-approved brake pads is that they have a warning indicator that signals the driver that the brake pads need replacement service. The warning indicator will make a screeching noise that is the telltale signs of excessive wear. If the warning sound gets ignored, the brake pads will wear down until the metal foundation is contacting the rotor. If this happens, it is a safety concern because stopping power is compromised and you’ll likely hear metal-on-metal grinding with damaged rotors.
Beyond brake noise, there are a few other warning signs of worn brake pads offering an opportunity to schedule service.
