Extend the Life of Your Mercedes-Benz Brakes

You can keep the brakes in your Mercedes-Benz car or SUV responsive, capable, and efficient with a few simple steps. Check out these quick and easy tips on how to preserve your brakes:

  • Keep ample distance. It’s important to drive safely and allow enough stopping distance between you and the vehicle in front of you. When you don't have enough room to stop slowly, you're putting more strain on your brakes, causing them to wear down faster.
  • Consider your environment. Local and city driving requires more stopping and starting than in suburban or rural areas. Consider combining errands or carpooling when possible to reduce the amount of stopping you'll have to do.
  • Reduce your car’s weight. Our Mercedes-Benz vehicles available here at Fields Motorcars deliver in terms of capability and strength, but it’s best to clear out heavy items from your vehicle as often as possible. The heavier your car is, the more strain it puts on your brakes over time, and that strain can be avoided by removing excess cargo.
  • Get regular brake service. Routine car care is the best way to keep your vehicle’s parts and systems working efficiently. Visit our Mercedes-Benz service center here at Fields Motorcars for brake service you can trust.
