Can stones in brake pads come out on their own?
1 Answers
Stones in brake pads can come out on their own. It is normal for small stones to get between the brake pads and brake discs of a car, and most stones will come out by themselves. If a stone gets stuck in the brake disc, you can first accelerate, then brake hard, and then reverse and brake hard again. Repeating this cycle a few times should solve the problem. If this method doesn't work, you will need to take the car to a repair shop or a 4S store for professional handling. Under normal driving conditions, the lifespan of front brake pads is typically 30,000 to 50,000 kilometers, while rear brake pads can last 120,000 to 150,000 kilometers. The exact replacement time depends on the wear condition. Different vehicle models may have varying manufacturer-recommended mileage intervals. When replacing brake pads, it is advisable to choose products from reputable manufacturers. Genuine brake pads usually have clear packaging with details such as the license number, specified friction coefficient, and execution standards. The packaging should also include a certificate of compliance, production batch number, and production date. It is recommended to have new brake pads installed by professionals at a certified repair shop to avoid mistakes that could lead to potential safety hazards.
