- Important part of braking system
- Protects brake components from dust and debris
- Replace if broken, corroded, or missing
The Brake Dust Shield is an essential part of your Nissan's braking system, but it's one that many people overlook. When you use your brakes, the friction between the rotors and pads makes brake dust. Based on the name, it's unsurprising that the Brake Dust Shield helps shield your brake and suspension parts from this dust. It also helps shield them from sand, moisture, dirt, and more.
When debris builds up, it can lead to premature wear of your braking system and even brake failure. The Brake Dust Shield is particularly important if you live in areas with salted roads because salt can corrode essential braking and suspension parts.
How do you know it's time to replace your Nissan Brake Dust Shield? If your Brake Dust Shield is rusted, bent, cracked, loose, or missing altogether, you need a replacement. Driving with a missing or damaged Brake Dust Shield might not have an immediate effect, but it could shorten your braking system's lifespan.
The Brake Dust Shield is located underneath a few layers of braking hardware, which can make it difficult to replace or install yourself. Unless you're experienced working with cars, we recommend ordering the part online and taking your car to your local Nissan service center to have trained professionals handle the Brake Dust Shield replacement.
When it comes to your braking system and the Brake Dust Shield, you don't want to take any chances. Shop OEM parts to help make sure you get the right fit for your car.
