Genuine Ford Brake Calipers

What is a Ford Brake Caliper?

A Ford brake caliper is a crucial component of your vehicle’s braking system. It houses the brake pads and pistons, and its primary function is to create friction with the brake rotors to slow down or stop the vehicle. When you press the brake pedal, hydraulic fluid from the master cylinder creates pressure on the pistons inside the caliper, forcing the brake pads against the rotors. This friction slows the rotation of the wheels, effectively bringing your car to a halt.

When to Replace Ford Brake Calipers

There are several scenarios where you might need to replace your Ford brake calipers:

• Leaking Brake Fluid: If you notice brake fluid leaking around the wheels, it could indicate a damaged caliper.
• Uneven Brake Pad Wear: If one brake pad is significantly more worn than the other, it might be due to a sticking caliper.
• Reduced Braking Performance: If your vehicle takes longer to stop or the brake pedal feels spongy, it could be a sign of caliper issues.
• Noisy Brakes: Squealing or grinding noises when braking can also indicate caliper problems.
