Chevy Corvette Brake Calipers

The majority of modern vehicles feature disc brakes, at least on the front wheels. Brake calipers are principal parts of disc brakes. The disc brake system utilizes metal discs called brake rotors, to which the wheels are attached. The rotor spins along with the vehicle’s wheel. When you press the brake pedal, brake fluid pushes the pistons in the brake calipers. In their turn, the pistons push the brake pads against the brake rotor on both its sides to create friction. This friction is what slows down and stops an automobile.

Whatever part of your brake system is faulty, it should be timely found and addressed – driving with malfunctioning brakes is unsafe. A common problem of the calipers is rust on the bolts, pistons, or caliper's inner surface, where the pistons are located. Due to that, piston's movement can be restricted, and the calipers seize during their operation. In the worst case, solving this problem requires the replacement of the faulty brake caliper.
