Brake Inspections
Brake inspections are recommended for the Chevy Silverado 1500 at major service intervals and in response to problematic braking. Inspections will find damaged parts that carry an excessive risk or confirm that the brakes are in good condition. This involves assessing each brake system component.
Brake Fluid Exchange
Hydraulic brake fluid absorbs water when exposed and can leak from damaged components. Water-contaminated or leaking brake fluid cannot transfer the energy needed to stop. Chevrolet Silverado 1500 trucks should change the brake fluid every 45,000 miles. This involves removing the old fluid, inspecting the full system, and installing fresh dot 3 hydraulic brake fluid to specifications.
What are the Warning Signs of Braking Problems?
You should get an inspection if you notice any of these warning signs while your Silverado 1500 is braking:
- Brake system warning light on
- Grinding, squeaking, or squealing
- Leaking brake fluid
- Wobbling or vibrations
- Burnt odor
- Truck pulls to a side when braking
- Brake pedal feels soft or spongy
- Excessive bounce when hard stopping
Brake Pad Replacement
Brake pads will generally last between 30,000 to 70,000 miles contingent upon driving habits. They should be inspected at major service intervals and replaced when they measure 3mm or .1 inch regardless of the miles. Service involves removing the worn pads, inspecting the other components, and installing genuine Chevrolet OEM parts to specifications.
Chevrolet Brake System & Maintenance
Stopping the Silverado 1500 truck requires a hydraulic braking system that generates resistance at each wheel. The resistance is created when the brake pads are pressed against the brake rotor discs. This requires a hydraulic fluid to transfer the energy through the braking system. Brake fluid, pads, and rotors require routine maintenance to keep them performing properly. The other braking components might also need repairs if they get damaged.
