- Part of your Nissan's brake system
- Creates friction on the rotors to help your car come to a stop
- Made from durable, tested materials
Your Nissan's braking system contains a few unique components that work in harmony to help your car slow down or stop quickly.
Every single component in the braking system must be in working order and correctly aligned, and that includes the Disc Brake Caliper Pins. These metal pins are beside the brake piston assembly on each caliper. They are also called guide pins, because they can help make sure that, when the brake pistons press the pads and rotors toward one another, they are angled correctly.
When the Disc Brake Caliper Pins are warped, eroded, lacking sufficient lubrication, or not installed correctly, they may disturb the larger braking system's precise alignment. Over time, worn out brake caliper pins might cause your brakes to stick or grind. If left unaddressed, excess wear resulting from the brake pads and rotors meeting at the wrong angle may lead to warping of other system components. Brushing off even small issues with one or more of your Disc Brake Caliper Pins could result in expensive repairs or premature wear to your Nissan's brakes.
A few warning signs that something may be wrong with your vehicle's Disc Brake Caliper Pins include: a sense that your car is pulling to the side, a spongy or soft brake pedal, diminished stopping power, inconsistent wear on brake pads, and abnormal brake sounds, such as grinding or screeching. The symptoms of a corroded, misaligned, or worn caliper pin can be very similar to symptoms of other brake issues, which is why it's wise to have a professional inspect your brakes for advanced diagnostics and repair work.
If you believe there may be an issue with one or more of your vehicle's Disc Brake Caliper Pins, head to your neighborhood Nissan service center for help. Whenever you need to shop for a new Disc Brake Caliper Pin, head straight to the source for an exact replica that's made to fit your Nissan's brake assembly.
