The Saturn Aura's braking system primarily utilizes disc brakes at both the front and rear wheels. These brakes consist of brake pads that clamp onto rotors (discs) to slow the vehicle down. The brake pads are housed within brake calipers, which are hydraulically activated when the brake pedal is pressed.

These are friction materials that press against the brake rotors to create the stopping force.
These are metal discs that rotate with the wheels, and the brake pads clamp onto them.
These are housings that hold the brake pads and apply pressure to them when the brakes are engaged.
The brake pedal activates a hydraulic system that pushes brake fluid to the calipers, causing the pistons to move and the brake pads to clamp onto the rotors.
Different brake pad materials (e.g., semi-metallic, ceramic) offer varying levels of performance and durability.
Rotors can wear down over time or warp due to excessive heat, affecting braking efficiency.
City driving with frequent stops and starts can put more stress on the brakes than highway driving.
Aggressive braking can shorten the lifespan of brake pads and rotors.
