Good to know
How much does brake pad replacement cost on average?
Per axle, brake pad replacement generally ranges from $150 to $300 for parts and labor. Premium ceramic pads or specialized performance vehicles can push costs up to $400 per axle.
How long does it take to replace brake pads at a shop?
A standard brake pad replacement for one axle typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. If the shop also needs to turn or replace the rotors, the service takes about 1.5 to 2 hours.
How often should brake pads be replaced?
Most vehicle manufacturers recommend replacing brake pads every 30,000 to 70,000 miles, depending on driving habits and pad material. Have the friction material measured whenever pads reach 3mm thickness or less.
