DODGE CALIBER

BRAKE REPAIR

The Dodge Caliber typically features disc brakes at the front and, depending on the trim and year, either disc or drum brakes at the rear. The SRT4 model, a performance variant, comes standard with larger, vented front disc brakes and rear disc brakes. Brake components like rotors and pads are crucial for stopping power and should be maintained regularly to ensure safe operation.

Brake System Overview:

Front Brakes:

Most Dodge Calibers, including the base models, have disc brakes on the front wheels. These consist of brake rotors (or discs) and brake calipers, which house the brake pads.

Rear Brakes:

Entry-level Caliber models might have drum brakes in the rear, while others have disc brakes.

Brake Pads:

Brake pads are made of a friction material that creates the necessary stopping force by pressing against the brake rotors.

Brake Rotors:

Brake rotors are the discs that the brake pads clamp onto to slow down the vehicle. They can be prone to wear and may require replacement over time.

Brake Calipers:

Brake calipers house the brake pistons that push the brake pads against the rotors.
