- Important part of braking system
- Protects brake components from dust and debris
- Replace if broken, corroded, or missing
Your Nissan Brake Dust Shield is an important part of your braking system, yet many drivers don't think about it. When you brake, the pads and rotors rub together, which creates brake dust. As the name implies, the Brake Dust Shield helps protect your suspension and brake parts from this dust. It also helps protect them from moisture, dirt, sand, and more.
When debris builds up, it might cause premature wear of your braking system and possibly brake failure. The Brake Dust Shield is extra important for drivers who live in locations with salted roads because salt can corrode essential braking and suspension parts.
When is it 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 immediately harm your vehicle, but it could shorten your braking system's lifespan.
The Brake Dust Shield is located beneath a few layers of braking hardware, which can make it hard to replace or install at home. Unless you are familiar and comfortable working with cars, we advise ordering the component online and taking your vehicle to the nearest Nissan service center to have certified technicians replace the Brake Dust Shield.
You don't want to take any chances when it comes to the Brake Dust Shield and your braking system. Shop genuine OEM parts to help find you get the right fit for your car.
The Brake Dust Shield, part 411513TA5A, is compatible with Nissan Altima 2013-2018. For more information, and to make sure you are getting the correct part, view the What This Fits tab.
