I would appreciate some advice on my car. The car is currently at the dealer as the brake warning light came in blinking for my husband. They say I need new front brake we need to do the job ourselves to save money can you help ? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,

Replacing front brake pads and rotors really isn't too hard. When you do it yourself, make sure to get lifetime parts so you never have to pay for it again.

Front brake pads can be expected to last approximately 25,000 miles. However, that changes based on driving habits and terrain.

Here is a guide to help you step by step with instructions in the diagrams below to show you how on your car.
